Two weeks ago I brought in a shipment of reptiles from Indonesia to LAX. In the shipment were 8 blue tree monitors - 5 babies & 1.2 sub adults, 6 baby green tree monitors, baby green tree pythons and frilled lizards. The shipment was stolen from the customs bond area of Singapore Airlines. The people who did this are obviously very stupid. First rob a bank and you get a year, steal from a customs bond area and it's 5 years minimum. The reptiles were never cleared by Customs or Fish & Wildlife so you can add 5 to 10 years more. Anyone who has these animals is also guilty of not just being in possession stolen goods but a host of federal crimes. I know who picked them up and who he worked for and they will be taken care of. As soon as the police give the OK I'll post the name of the fish dealer and his employee. I'd rather have the animals back than the money so I'm asking if anyone knows where the animals are to please let me know. I've been in this business for more than 30 years and it still amazes how stupid some people are.
Thanks
