Agalychnis.spp Gets CITES Protection.

Thanks for posting this. I was trying to get more details yesterday but couldn't lay my hands on them. To anyone worried about their frogs becoming illegal, listing in Appendix II will only concern you if you're trying to send or receive these frogs across international borders. Appendix II is less of a problem for hobbyists than Appendix I.

You're welcome John, thanks for clarifying the meaning of the appendices.

A good example of an Appendix II animal is the Axolotl salamander, Ambystoma mexicanum: http://www.axolotl.org. They are widely kept as pets and captive bred on a regular basis. Provided they are not exported or imported across national borders, hobbyists have never been subject to CITES and buying/selling their pets.
