Babycurus animals-Where are they

[Lucas339]

Hello all!

I used to keep scorpions long ago. I sold everything and now I am slowly getting back into it. When I kept scorpions, Babycurus were a dime a dozen! But now they seem to be rare. I saw a few threads saying just that but haven't seen why. Did the imports on them become regulated somehow?? Just curious as they were some of my favorites to keep! Below is a picture of one of my females with a brood from 2010!

You must have strange import laws in US. - Some species but not others.

It's not the import laws. It's the price of importing. Has to clear customs and be inspected...etc.

Well Africa shut down a lot of its importing. So no wild caughts come in anymore.
