The pumilio have been refused entry to the United States by an agency of our government, The US Fish and Wildlife Service. This is apparently due to some paper work type technicality, making it temporarily illegal to import any thing from Panama along with seven other countries. This is a US rule, and has to do with CITES. (Convention on Trade in Endangered Species, I believe) It has nothing to do with Glenn, or anyone else in the animal end of this deal. The way Fish and Wildlife has been acting the last year or so, it would not surprise me if this is a deliberate attempt to block this shipment.
This ruling was released on Wednesday, so bad timing. The frogs, as best I can see it, will not be held anywhere, but returned to Panama. (On this I am not sure, but it is what is typically done in these cases.) This is unfortunate, as a percentage will doubless die due to the double shipping, but I doubt enough time will elapse to allow any intervention. I would be surprised if they are not in Panama by tomorrow morning.
It will most likely be some time before the importation is attempted again, but thats just my guess.

[I knew from the beginning this shipment is too good to be true. Now I feel like a victim of mail fraud and scam here. I better get my money back or all hell is going to break lose!]
I assume you saw all the folks posting that you should only invest what you could afford to lose? Thats the way it goes with importations. However I think you are wrong to just assume that you wont get your money back, I am sure Glenn will refund the money. Although.....I thought he wasnt taking any money up front?
And I think it is mighty callous to say that you dont care about the frogs, you shouldnt be keeping frogs with that attitude!
