🚫 Say NO to Harmful Positive Lists! 🚫

As keepers of rare and obscure species, we face a serious threat. “Positive lists” — restrictive laws that only allow government-approved pets — could wipe out our ability to responsibly care for the animals we’ve dedicated our lives to.

These lists don’t protect animals — they drive pet keeping underground, cut off access to vet care, and fuel illegal wildlife trade. For those of us working with niche species, this isn’t just a hobby — it’s our passion, and our purpose.

🛑 Help protect our rights and our reptiles.

Commonly named the Boie’s Kukri Snake or the Javanese Mountain Kukri Snake, this species is native to Indonesia.

This beautiful Oligodon is typically found in mountain forests at elevations between 300 and 1,200 m above sea level.

Enjoy some of our favourite shots from today’s session! 🐍📷
