They seem very hard to find in the wild. Not on the endangered list yet, but sounds like they probably should be. Sure hope s/he doesn't get any takers or there may not be many left in the wild. Then again, if they are already in small numbers, it might be good if someone can raise them up to reproduce so they don't go extinct. Of course this is if the info I have read about them is true.

Wow, that's... a few! What an opportunity, but I understand why you said no.

Wow….Would love to get some of these one day. There really needs to be established populations in captivity. I'm not sure what they're status is in the wild. Pretty sure they are data deficient for listing as vulnerable/endangered/etc.. They might be hard to find throughout their range.
