Curious ba.. ur eating machine suddenly don eat

buwuahahah im back.. seems ok.. everyone seems ok.. i think...
well got myself a Liocheles australasiae. shocking to see its size.. by the way isit normal for these to be sold around RM20 for two.. coz a friend of a friend is selling it at that price.. seems to me its kinda expensive as it is a local sp after all..

U dun need2 knw anything, danny
Isnt it ur style for nt doing research and being ignorant?

U... shld have juz get it from me...... RM20... Wat a rip off..........
But its definitely be great for u cause u finally got other sp aside from afs

yeah loh.. never mind bout the price.. at least got myself another species.. coming one step closer to get my self ready for a fat tail...

rideon,
next time if people sell liocheles wild caught,
i advise u not to buy since u are actually encouraging poaching/hunting for local species~

it's different between herping, u shud know that.

i believe in such a quote,

'When the Buying Stops, the Killing Can Too'

only in our case,

'when the buying stops, the poaching can too'

we should be on our way conserving and preserving this animal,

i bet ryo would agree,

it's time to shift from a hobbyist to environmentalist,

i'm sure we can do our part too,

and rm20 is expensive, however this animal is not for trade, so it is priceless!

remember,
support captive breed,

only buy if necessary~

just my none-cents

so i actually have a big breeding project in mind,

Of AFS,

for some reason i think we should jalan2 to Scorpion Pond to get bulk~

they do captive breed there, rite ryo?

U have a point but wat have been done cannot be undo
Lets juz play our part in breeding and releasing them back in the future

Thanks for the advice. I tend to care all of my scorpions better than my cats (not entirely mine) and technically i just want to research them see how they behave in captivity. is i do manage to breed and get many broth then some i would realease into the wild. It not just a pet but its also an observation. That is y i dont really agree with people who go herping and getting a bucket full of them. i got any experience in herping and see them in wild but i do want to experience it some day.. again thanks for your advice.

ryo,

u actually 'educate' rideon into this,

it's a surprise

btw maybe i'm just over reacting because basically most of my friends are environmentalist

damn i dunno oso when i got intoxicated,

even ryo got poison oso~

and now rideon, great man

i think most of us have the idea od just sometimes we need to remind each other in case we forget,

that is all exhibition all about, so next time i suggest you all take part in the exhibition,

because it's people like us who should be sharing the information to the people

yeah loh.. i have been brainwashed by you two.. ahahahah.. but you do have a point..

i thgt of breeding Ts and putting back into the wild also ==
sorry for posting this here

Before releasing them in the wild we shld really research if its suitable to release in that area
We might cause some trouble to the local eco system if we release without researching
But hw2 knw if its suitable to release in a particular area o nt i have no idea lol

I think its good to go herping as you will encounter their habitat. One found a sp. then it obvious that that particular sp thrive in that area.. so make a note of the place later you could release the same sp back in that area... i feel like we all are savior..

Im nt a savior im juz a hobbyist lol

ok that too.. lol...

Wa .. juz went dinner come back ... .today so hot in the forum LOL ..

hmmm i am hobbyist lol

and how many of you actually gave something back to the wild?

the last time i released 3 batches of AFS slings into a forest, the place got leveled to a plot of "new modern shop-lots, with bank, starbucks and many more to come" development. So if you're planning to release, please do so in a protected forest. If you're releasing also, please really really make sure the place's really protected. As the place i release also has a big sign saying "Tapak Peyelidikan FRIM, Dilarang Menebang Pokok" till the end, money talks...

HMM SCORPION I HAVEN HAVE A CHANCE TO RELEASE BACK TO THE WILD .. but i release birds to nature res before ... can consider also ???

i realise 8 turtles b4 ==

turtles i also have before .. was in a program org by a club or something like that ... we release babies turtles back to the sea .... hmm .. that was like 5 - 7 years ago ??? LOL i forget le LOL

when you say turtle do you mean sea turtles or normal shop bought turtles?

when you release those normal pet shop turtles, ie. RES aka Red Eared Sliders, you actually do more harm to our environment then good.
