Sustainable collection:
Unfortunately there are no agreed upon or set standards. These are mine
- I must know the collector/importer. I must be able to talk to them personally about the animals
- only healthy individuals are collected. Ones that will do okay in the switch to captivity. This is down to the best of our abilities; some issues aren't evident during a quick look-over
- at most, 33% of a local population is taken. Absolutely no more, and ideally less. Local population = definable ecosystem
- a variety of specimens are taken. For example, both males and females, a variety of ages, etc. this keeps the local population diversity the same.
These standards of course affects prices; prices may be a bit higher than the average wild caught. I promise, it's worth it.
Thanks for reading. This is very important to me and the business.
