• In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums. PLEASE NOTE: In no instance will this site ask you for this sort of information. The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.

    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    “Four days ago I closed nearly all of the discussion forums on this site.” What prompted you to close the discussion forums? What was your motivation? Did you really study the numbers, topics, categories, readers' interests, data first? “Not a single solitary soul seemed to even notice.” “No...

    For Sale Terrapene nelsoni 1.1

    Oh - I just see Erik Ivins has provided further answers and evidence. It appears from his image that there have been some legal imports to the U.S. 20 years ago. I suppose one might question the veracity of the image or other documents - but the onion is peeled more and for those interested -...

    For Sale Terrapene nelsoni 1.1

    Thanks for clarification. See - as I admitted - I'm no expert in this matter. Still, it seems to me when rare animals are offered - rather than have back and forth "he said she said" - it is helpful (and possible closure) to provide salient facts and evidence. And I did note one has to peel...

    Note: I limited my CITES search to years 2023 - 2026. OP noted "long term captives" which may mean in the U.S. long term and prior year's CITES import records exist; or perhaps the pictured specimens are long term Mexican captives and part of the batches legally imported as noted by CITES...

    I am no expert in this matter. Just thought to look at the CITES Trade Data Base. CITES definitions: "Purpose" - "T" means "for commercial trade". "Source" - "C" means "for captive propagation" and "captive produced". In this case, it appears captive produced T nelsoni were legally imported...
