Re: How about some jags?
You can really shorten the 10 year wait for a roughie by equating 1 grand per year and whala.... a rough scaled python.
Nah mate, not mine it's at the local wildlife park.
Oenpellis....... the search has started (over a decade in the making) as there are a lot of beurucratic crap/permits legalities and the like to go through. One person is currently trying to search for them to bring them into captivity as he has been given a capture permit. Unfortunately that's proper rough country out there and each expedition which may only be a few weeks long cost a lot of money as you need to be dropped in by helicopter a long with all the supplies. The first expedition was a bust mate, three weeks out there and these guys are proper herpers that know that land came up empty handed.
It will be a while mate, probably close to another decade before they are established in captivity as first and foremost the capture permit is given as a permit to establish an "ark" for them. To study their natural behaviour and the like and actually just to find out about the animal itself. So with that it will be a while before they are released to the public. The person that has the permit though is a private individual and a reptile breeder, actually the first person to establish albino olive pythons (from a wildcaught specimen) and granite olive pythons. I'll PM you his name and his site if your interested.
I have a pair of locality specific Jungles by the way, a Tully locale male and an Atherton locale female.
