Thanks again! If you ever will make it to Madagascar you can let me know I could help you prepare your trip. I most certainly will go to the US for reptiles in the future. Thanks for the offer! I am from Holland. We have 3 species of snakes and 4 species of lizzards a couple of frogs and amfibians. ...

Hi Dylan Thanks for the support. I was surprised myself getting no replies on any post. Also no replies on questions or requests.

Hi A few years ago I found a couple of Common Treefrogs (Hyla arborea) in the Netherlands and one was significantly larger and had virtually no blackish line along the sides of the body. Almost nothing between the eye and the nostril and particularly hardly anything between de eye and the ear. Also ...

Hi Guys Happy new year! It is winter here in West Europe so the best time to think about next travels. One of my wishes is to visit South and West Australia in November next year.

Hi Frank I am starting to add a few names so I can hopefully get some replies on ID's. Yes Mad is a wonderful place.

I know that the best place to see it is Ranomafana but at the time that was not a very safe place to...

Hi guys Here is a second part. We did the Amber Mountain NP. in the far north. Just a few days. Again a lot of the goodies at night. https://links.flickr.com/u/click?_t=40ac9f0c38d540238d36950e58265982&_m=4f2b239f557249b1978be70f0e110580&_e=md-AVys3JIra_JTj2oX0hTohI7cEo4dLlC_FXXi8jXljdhWlL56JiqYgrg5...

Hi I'm new to this forum and a beginning herper although I was always very much interested in reptiles and amphibians. I did a herping trip to one of the best places in the world for 3 weeks in Oktober in 2018. I was there before in 2003 but then focussed on birds and mammals. This time the focus wa...
