Country:
They are somewhat lacking in the eye-appeal department. They'd never get a second look when in the presence of some of the more colourful chams. Their egg laying method is unique. But the real reason i'd love to have them is because they're so dangerously close to extinction - they've got one foot in the grave, so to speak. If there was a way to try captive breeding, they might be saved, but they don't sound like a species that's easily kept in captivity. Their environment sounds like a nightmare to reproduce. But it sure would be worth trying to keep the species alive.
Maybe things could change for them in the wild if the natives learn to leave the eggs alone, if they're taught that the eggs are cham eggs not wolf snake eggs.
