• In case most of you have not noticed, I made changes to the donation amounts as well as the durations for all of the paid membership levels. Things are winding down here, and this seems to be the most prudent way to deal with the "end of life" period of this site.

    Contributor level members - $10 per 30 days
    Sponsors - Eliminated
    Benefactor level members - $25 per 30 days
    Endowment level members - $50 per 30 days

    On July 1, 2027, all paid memberships will be closed.

    On August 1, 2027, FaunaClassifieds will be terminated.

    Only change I expect that might take place is when I can get around to figuring out when the amount of money I would have to refund for the yearly paid memberships becomes less than the monthly expense of leasing my server, THAT date might be the termination date for the site.

Fair price for Sulawesi forest turtle

The rarity, fragility, and complete moratorium on the species demands a high price. However, getting it into an assurance colony would be the more prudent move as this species is quickly disappearing and captive breeding efforts have been difficult.
 
I have not seen anything for L. yuwonoi since about 2007 with the exception of a single listing for a female in 2010.

My price is an estimation.
 
I doubt that 2010 listing was a legal import. I believe the complete moratorium of importation had been enacted by that point.
 
If I were you I would contact Turtle Survival Alliance and they can probably pass on your information to a guy named Cris Hagen. I know he worked with them extensively and has had some success breeding them. He could you the best advice.
