    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.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hello I’m interested! Can you please text me at 6105640246? I’ve never gotten a reply through here before I’m not sure if this is the direct way of messaging you or not
 
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 from Mexico to the U.S. in 2023 and 2024 for "commercial trade and captive propagation".
If interested, one can look into the Importers of record via further document review and the importer's initials.

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 during 2023 and 2024.
