    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Quick glance through my Field guide to reptiles and the law, it appears veileds are prohibited. (seems all Chameleons are, but I'd have to read a little more in depth.
 
State and federal regulations prohibit the legal entrance of any reptiles and amphibians into Hawaii. In fact it is very difficult to take any animals into hawaii. They have an enormous problem with established alien herps that they are in the proccess of trying to eliminate (poison arrow frogs, jackson's chameleons, reed frogs, etc.).

It's a very big no no... one for which they prosecute aggressively.
 
After seeing the effect the Brown Tree snake had on Guam, I can understand why Hawaii would be so strict about letting foreign reptiles/animals on to the islands.
