everybody's white whale

Coleonyx

Coleonyx fasciatus, Hemitheconyx taylori, Eublepharis hardwickii, Eublepharis turcmenicus, Coleonyx switaki and reticulatus (no-collect-ums :( ). I would love to see a melanistic Coleonyx variegatus or one with a pattern stripe (Like Mat.si's elegans, not like fat tailed geckos)
Just about it!

actually, i think i can add something to my list:

a gecko, or reptile, that talks to me to tell me exactly what is wrong, or what is stressing it, or why it is behaving as it is...

my friend might possibly get to find one herp that could be considered a "white whale".... he's going to be doing herp surveying in a particular part of china that has fea's vipers (Azemiops feae) as well as chinese giant salamanders (Andrias spp.). just imagine that...spending 4 months, herping for a living, in a foreign land that has had little to no herp research ever conducted. theres also the possibility of describing a new species, which would be amazing.

Ooo, giant salamanders... I add them to my white whale :D Also, a nile crocodilian, or american aligator. Or dwarf caiman, or lots of geckos, or.... I dont know. I am happy with any herp at all :D But Number one is a liplurodon, or Sarcosuchus. Either one, Im happy :D :lol:

True that is why we have 748 pounds of amber from madagascar, a bunch of seringes and a bunch of frogs. :D We should have a gigas eventualy right?

my white whale(s) just isnt a single species, but all the species of geckos that you just cant find anywhere. i am sick of seeing 1,000 leos, cresteds, tokays, and AFTs at all the shows and in online classifieds everywhere. i have nothing against them at all, but i'd like to see some more species being offered. how bout some more pachydactylus? or some different crydactylus. i'd love to see some hemidactylus too.
anyway, eniugh whining.. i do have to say that its nice to see some of these different species being offered lately, lets just hope its an ongoing trend.
