| Just wondering if it's possible to own a yellow fat-tail in Canada or in North America for that matter. |

| Pet shops rarely carry anything more exotic than emps or the occasional mis-IDed Heterometrus. If you want to pick up Androctonus spp. you're going to have to do it through classifieds on sites like this or by going to shows. _________________ If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don't panic. | My reviews | My Bug Pictures | My blog Be nice -- you were a noob once, too "Never ask an engineer to explain something, because he will." |

| Around here you have top drive like 6 hours to get to a pet shop like that and it's not even certain they will do it. |
