you say there are giant bull frogs still being imported, well in the lincolnshire area there are wild fire salamanders that some how got here. they are producing rapidly problem or not i dont no? my only worry is that the native newts to are country might have to compete with the fire salamanders.if you have seen any fire salamanders in britain please write back.

i no this isnt the subject but the common lizard (viviparious lizard) is becoming rarer by the day and not much is done about it. im not to sure about the reptile laws so i will ask my question and figure out my question from your replies. is it illegal to breed these lizard in captivity if you are not selling the young? i have heard from some people that you can only keep viviparious if they are from captive bred stock?its just i would do anything posible to keep the common lizard numbers up i just dont no what is legal and whats not. thank you for your time.
