I've caught snakes (rat snakes and such), skinks, and little lizards here in TN. Just because they are not as known to people out there as being really cool (to others, just everyday lizards), doesn't mean that they aren't special in their own way. That's great that you have the opportunity to go out and catch those wonderful species, but let's be nice and just SHARE, not BOAST that you can catch better things. _________________ 1.1.0 Bearded Dragons (Damien and Miss Priss) 0.1.0 Crested Geckos (Priscilla) 2.6.0 Leopard Gecko (Tonka, Rhaco, Hermine, Talia, Kalypso, Serendipity, Faith, and Sprinkles) 0.0.1 Henkeli Leaf Tail (Houdini) 0.1.0 Chacoan Black and White Tegu on her w Back to top Nero557 Respected Member Joined: Mar 03, 2006 Posts: 521 Location: Chicago, IL Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2007 9:20 pm    Post subject: ditto ^ _________________ -Art- Back to top suspect187 Member Joined: Feb 26, 2007 Posts: 25 Posted: Thu Apr 05, 2007 12:54 am    Post subject: What an ass...

I saw it on the newest posts section on the website Home and didnt even bother looking at the date since it had recent posts... I just automaticaly figured it wasnt old... since it was active.

What a great way to stir up some angry responses since the guy clearly can't back up his talk. I've waded through bogs, wet and dry, scoured forests to track deer and turkey, chased lizards through the desert and jumped into lakes to catch turtles. Without the pictures how can you believe, but trust word of mouth. So here's my latest capture...the unicorn that we saw! And we don't know anything about field herping PSSSSSHH!
