I captured this Gippsland Water Dragon as a Hatch ling. ( About 8year ago) It was around 4 inches long and possibly Magpie Bait at the time.
I took it home to rear it in my 4ft Herp enclosure and raised it to be a healthy specimen of around to 2ft. It was then released back to the same spot I snatched it from


Am I bad. I dot think so!

I would do it again. I would like to have a crack at a Red Bellied Black Snake:confused013

YES....Did you have a Herpetology license to keep Water Dragons. It was also illegal to remove the animal from the wild and it was also illegal to return it. SO YES

Dave you have only to look at the dragon's sad and wistful expression to know that it would have preferred to stay with you! A very nice image with complimentary colours, and an interesting and very effective composition.

Ok so I am a Very Naughty Boy then. I did enjoy it though.

There's that bit of OOFery in the nearer skin protrusions, DP, so perhaps a crop could eliminate its mild distraction.

At least you have not been TWO bad, though on the Q of your morality you may wish to ponder the sentiment of this s:angry34:ng... (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMEgDBj6n9g)
- or just sing al:(ng with it. (--Or something else completely:confused013)
