I actually spoke with the guy about getting some of his group of Yucatán box turtles but the information he gave me was not convincing. He was willing to ship me any of the animals I wanted before receiving any payment. I forgot what he told me regarding the origin of the turtles. Something along the lines of he acquired a large established group of these Mexican species when he bought out someone’s collection. Interesting enough he would not give me the name of the person he claimed to have bought them from.
