Yes, I ,too,tink Xenopus are cool animals (tadpoles are amazing) but I'm surprised it's still legal to sell them having in mind their invasive nature and the spread of the fungal disease! I'm not sure if they have documents for them in the shop I saw them in, since they were not even labeled for sale! They were sort of 'hidden' in one of the fish tanks in the corner of the shop! Anyway, Jeroen sorry if I'm turning your post into discussion on alien species! The other things you've found are very cool, too! Love the Pelodytes I wish I find them some they too!

That brings back memories, it already seems so far away! Anyway, my report (of course in Dutch) will follow soon as well.
