Other Canada / International ResourcesCanada Wide Resources Canadian Herpetological Society (CHS website) / Facebook Group Canada's national herptile society and registered charity, of which I am a member. I recommend all Canadians check them out, and consider becoming a member if you like the work this society is doing. "The mandate of CHS is to foster research and conservation of Canada's reptiles and amphibians, collectively known as herpetofauna. The Canadian Herpetological Society is committed to ensuring herpetology in Canada is welcoming to everyone. We are aware that our field does not have an inclusive history, but we are working to change this. We acknowledge that barriers, including systemic discrimination in academia and elsewhere, have prevented equitable access to education, research, and job opportunities in herpetology. As such, we are committed to ensuring that the CHS is a safe, equitable, diverse, and inclusive environment for all herpers." Canadian Reptile and Exotic Board of Inquiry Facebook page for reviews regarding Canadian buyers and sellers. "This forum is designed to serve the purpose of giving anyone interested in the buying and selling of herptile related merchandise the opportunity to inquire about, or find already existing information concerning a person or business with whom they are considering doing business with." Reptile Evolution & Advanced Captive Husbandry (REACH) Facebook page for Canadians and other herpers striving to provide betters level of captive care. "The goals of this group is to help Canadians (and others!) gain insight and knowledge about true, advanced care and keeping of their reptiles. Of course, anyone internationally is allowed. We are here to encourage enrichment, natural behaviours and all around a more beautified and healthier style in keeping." Reptile Express / Reptile Express Store Offers door-to-door shipping of reptiles across Canada with an easy quote process, also sells a huge variety of shipping products such as complete kits, boxes, heat & cool packs, deli cups & clam shells, cloth bags and more. Run by Sam Fard, I've used this service many times with no issues and highly recommend them. Reptile Runner Offers discounted FedEx shipping labels to members - sign up is free! Also has plenty of information about how to ship a reptile such proper labelling & packaging, which FedEx hubs can accept reptiles and which ones generally don't. Also offers export of reptiles to the USA. Reptile Express International Like Reptile Express... but offering international shipping services to Canada, the United States, Europe and Asia! Partnered with Northern Lights Reptile Imports. I have used their service to receive snakes from Europe and to send snakes to the US, no complaints! One of the most affordable international shipping services I've seen. Northern Lights Reptile Imports / Facebook page Import/Export broker that is partnered with Reptile Express and does regularly scheduled shipments from North America to Europe and back. Offers mainly non-CITES species such as colubrids, lizards and geckos. Sometimes brings in invertebrates as well. Also offers their professional services for private imports by special request. Facebook page receives some extra updates with special offers. Reptile Classifieds Classified site for Canadian reptile-related sales such as reptiles, feeders, equipment and services. International Resources ReptiFiles Incredible resource with care guides for many reptiles including the species most commonly kept in captivity. Mariah Healey has done a great job of compiling guides, care sheets, starter kits and TONS of helpful links to stores and products especially for our friends in the USA! "ReptiFiles.com is a compilation of factual, science-based research from the best reptile care resources in the world, packaged in one neat website. I mainly focus on writing comprehensive care guides, but you’ll also find product reviews, resource directories, and the occasional blog post here." Advancing Herpetological Husbandry (AHH) Facebook group dedicated to all herp keepers with a desire to improve captive standards using science and facts-based evidence. Possibly the best reptile group on Facebook in my opinion! Affiliated groups include Not Just a Pet Rock (Python regius) for Ball/Royal python keepers and Giant leaps in giant husbandry, a group for larger reptiles such as Retics, Monitors, Burms, Tegus, Anacondas, Sulcatas, Boa constrictors, etc. "Our Goals: 1. To promote "best care" rather than "basic care." 2. Tackling the all-pervasive myths of reptile husbandry using research and science, not anecdote and assumption. 3. Promoting the use of new technologies where applicable, and the use of existing technologies where it has been proven to be beneficial to animals." Herpetoculture Feedback and Inquiry Facebook group for global buyers and seller reviews in the herp hobby, worth checking both this group and the Canadian one when looking for information. "The purpose of this forum is to post reviews, both positive and negative, about buyers and sellers in the herpetoculture community. This is also the place to inquire about a seller or breeder." The Reptile Database The most comprehensive reptile database on the internet! Great for looking up species that you are unfamiliar with. "The Reptile Database is a taxonomic database that provides basic information about all living reptile species, such as turtles, snakes, lizards, and crocodiles, as well as tuataras and amphisbaenians, but does not include dinosaurs. Currently there are more than 10,000 species and an additional 2,700 subspecies." H + E Stöckl - Boa Constrictors I don't normally add breeders here but this is one of the best places to find information about boas, including their subspecies and localities. A treasure trove of photos, descriptions, and observations including content from around the web... and of course, some of the nicest boas world-wide in my opinion. I always wonder if Europeans know how lucky they are! |
