Critters in Guanajuato Mexico?

[jimmyx36]

So my dad bought a lot of property down there a couple months ago. He's going to lease some units after he builds them and is also going to make a vacation house for us. I was thinking. Does anyone know if their are any Ts, Scorps, etc. down there in that area of Mexico? The terrain is flat and a little dry and has lots of Cacti around, from what my dad tells me.

Thanks!

Ok. It turns out there are bark scorpions there (Centruroides). I'd like to perhaps breed some and take them home to Cali. Would this be problematic?

Export from Mexico is prohibited, so yes it is problematic -- unfortunately.

Cheers,

Even to ship? Or are you reffereing to going through customs or something when traveling by plane?

 

[skinheaddave]

All of the above. Mexico is closed to animal export like Brazil.

Cheers,
Dave

How unfortunate. Well it'd be fun to go find them with a UV light nonetheless. The glass is still half full!

Now, I'm no saint so wouldn't it only be bad if you got caught?

Perhaps. Perhaps...
