Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Walker Smith aka landrine mcbride
Got me a scammer boys!
This douche canoe tried selling me some water dragons. I got an email from the scanner email walker Smith uses these days. The same time I got the copy and pasted message from "landrine" (what, did you flip to a random Lord of the rings page and pick a name?)
Google search shows nothing
Facebook says she doesn't exist
Google+ has nothing on the new email account
I'll post the texts, emails, and all the other goodies shortly. Watch your back friends, they just keep trying.
P.S. if you wanna see where they stole their pictures from, go to youtube and check this bad boy out

As one of the other moderators shared with me, "sometimes less is more" when running searches.
If the phone number is: (646) 450-5243
a search of only "5243" is often more effective here on Fauna instead.

He's a little busy beaver, he contacted me today, in response to my wanted ad for Conspics, it's pretty funny he uses the exact wording just changes the species.
Start reading from the bottom up, it's copy & paste emails.

Hello are you still looking for San Esteban Spiny-tailed Iguana (Ctenosaura conspicuosa)
The photos he sent of the conspics belong to Hubert Cumberdale.
Definitely a scam artist.
Avoid like the Plague!
