    I know it's technically accurate.

    However the way they worded it, it sounded like you were a real jerk to keep these guys at pets!

    Ah well, I would never release them into the wild obviously, the sign was pretty funny to see, being an owner of ACF.

    I don't get it... I guess you have to be familiar with ACFs?

    Well, ACF are an invasive species in North America, my girlfriend took the picture and she didn't include all the stuff that was on it unfortunately.

    When I headed to Shedds I was hoping they'd have an exhibit with Xenopus.. instead I saw this, which basically was a statement that they were invasive species, should not be kept as pets, and are sold by irresponsible pet stores..

    I saw that when I was there last summer. The "zoo" here has ACF and a crappy reptile exibit place a couple of hours from here has a display of them. It is always fun to see someone else's ACFs. lol

    Would of been nice! I did get to see an Axolotl exhibit though. I'd love to get one, one of these days.
