I know I may take some flack for this, but I have to disagree. While the
photos in this book are very nice and some of the information is useful, I
find the book to be more of a selling point for T-Rex foods! I find it funny
that these keepers advocate the cross breeding of species to create a more
colorful gecko? They talk about conservation of this genera, but then talk
about trying to produce a hybrid of locales, which I assume is for profit?
May people wonder why the herp community is not taken more seriously be
zoological institutions, I think you need to look no further then something
like this. Some of the most well known keepers ruining the genetic purity of
a species to make something that is more attractive to the public? I find it
disturbing, but that's only my oppinion, please feel free to disagree. I
myself, will keep breding as pure of animals as I can. I guess you could
compare it to the loss of many of the Eublepharis species that came in a few
years back.
