crazy rare to see in images, even the idea that some are for sale is crazier. Not my cup of tea as they say, but if a TFO person buys 'em, you got to post way more images.

They are listed on the Endangered Species Act and on CITES appendix I. He doesn't specify that they will need to be sold in Ohio only, where he is.

I have been looking through his ads for the better part of the last month. I have noticed this tricarnata ad as well. A few friends of mine are buying other animals from him right now. I hope he really has this stuff. Time will tell.

Some of his animals he has been posting have been OUT OF THIS WORLD cool, but his story would have me skeptical if I was buying. Perhaps I am not trusting enough :-/

I couldn't find any decent info on the species. Any good links would be appreciated.

They are very unusual to have in captivity in the US. Not much written on them at all including natural history. Some people in India have conservation programs for them. They are just that far from common.
