A complete crock. Have you ever seen a photo of one of his perenties?

Re: Importing Lace Monitors?

It seems like I saw one or two photos of a Perentie that allegedly belonged to him. No clue if it was legitimate or not, probably not. If he did own one, I'm confident there was some shady stuff going on.

I need to correct my statement.
Supposedly Frank did have a female. It was the male he tried to "bring in" That got seized.

That photo from 2009 is no way and animal Frank owned.

The first photo looks more like a taxidermy lizard than a live one sir. Hahahahahahaha.

To be honest, I would bet that the photo from 2009 was taken in OZ, because why would anyone in their right mind, hold an unrestrained Perentie outside in the open like that?

Well now that you mention it....

It was not taken in Australia, there aren't prickly pear cactus or cholla in OZ. Frank seems to have a thing for taking pictures of unrestrained monitors outside.. Did you see the pictures of when he got his Green Trees?

No I didn't. Things boil over quickly whenever I frequent anyplace he goes, so I tend to avoid him.
