    Default Japanese Mountain Toad (Bufo japonicus)- Availability in the USA and Importation?

    Hey guys, this is my first post that I am making on behalf of my brother. My brother keeps a few frogs and toads, and is VERY interested in Japanese Mountain Toads. It seems that they are not in the pet trade here, but I have seen them for sale in the UK. I was wondering if anyone here keeps them or has seen them? If not, would it be possible to somehow import a few of them from Europe or Japan?

    They seem popular in Japan. I found some on a japanese auction website I sometimes use (but not for live animals). They even have morphs of these guys!
    Check em out you're interested

    It would be awesome if I could somehow use a deputy of some sort to get them from this site. But my brother just wants any sort of Japanese giant toad, even tadpoles. He is very determined to obtain them. Is it possible?

    Thanks guys!

    Someone recently imported a few into the US for the first time. I managed to get two. Check faunaclassifieds and rare amphibian classifieds on facebook, that's where I saw the add.
