Just a quick question for those in the know...With the ever expanding supply of dart frog varieties, why have we not seen a similar increase in availablity of tropical salamanders? With the wonderful variety of coloration and interesting adaptations and behaviors I would think there would be an incentive for field collectors to bring these to market along with the frogs, but outside of Bolitoglossa dofleini , there are rarely any available. Any ideas as to why? I have heard B. dofleini horror stories in terms of import mortality, but I have also heard that other species have had better success with the few who have seen/kept them. Just wondering...
