The person who is selling the helenae, ChineseGreen, is the same person who sold hangianum a few months back. I'm surprised these auctions haven't been closed yet.
 
Yep... anyone who buys from ChineseGreen can expect a visit from the US Fish and Wildlife sooner or later :)

Someone has clearly watched 'Adaptation' once too many times. :rolleyes:
Not to mention, who's harvesting this? Zach? Go get 'em, Zach! :fight:


(finally a use for that moti!)
