Default Ranitomeya vanzolinii

Someone has posted R. vanzolinii for sale.
As far as I know, there has been no legal shipments
of this species from either Peru or Brazil. A few years
ago an illegal shipment was confiscated in Germany
and given to Harold Divoseen, who bred them. These
offspring from the confiscated frogs were made legal
in Germany and the rest of the EU, but not outside the EU.
Can someone please clarify?

Nope not legal here without exotic animal license and good luck getting one of them unless your a conservation officer or something along the lines of that.

R. vanzolinii has been legally imported from the EU to the US, I have seen the USF&W approved CITES import papers.

These have definitely caught my eye, awesome coloring different than anything else I've seen for sale here. I hope whoever has them in the US is successful in breeding so they become more available.

Edward,

you're right, that's it.
On an other note, those frogs must have bred like grazy since there are quite a few to be found in Germany and the Netherlands. My quess is this was the maze in the law through wich all illegal frogs peeped through.
