Great photos and thanks for sharing!!

Durian tastes great, but the smell is HORRIBLE!

I've spent thousands of hours working with macques and I can tell you with confidence they do NOT make good housepets!!...they also can be asymptomatic carriers of various zoonotic diseases, the most dangerous one being herpes B virus. Do they require vaccines/regular testing etc?

I wouldn't know. I don't keep any. But I doubt such vaccination is a requirement (to that particular owner that is), eventhough they are considered as endangered and requires permit to keep, breed or trade in Malaysia.

To be frank, I have no idea that old folks like leos so much. But I started to notice such incident since the first expo we held about more than a month ago.


I've noticed recently too that there's alot of older ladies buying leo's. It's like the old cat lady's have switched over !!

Thanks for posting all of these pics and the captions were great!

In this picture I think they're laughing because in India the native Eublepharis hardwikii is misidentified by startled people as a type of viper due to the shape of their heads... This has lead to a lot of people believing that they are venomous... You see how the women is 'showing' the head and the one guy has an expression on his face like she said "Now just look at the head. Doesn't it look like a snake?!"...
