Скачать или смотреть Saving dragons the battle for reptile conservation

an important part of my phd research has been to develop these genetic markers for sungazers so that we can do parentage tests and lizards that are to be exported for the pet trade. since we develop these markers, they have been used in cases to deny permits for the export of sungazers from south africa. and i'm happy to say that since 2015, no more sungazers have left the country under the guise of being captive bred. the small victory fills me with a lot of hope. but there are so many other species of reptiles that still need our help, and we have a long way to go to win this battle. working with people that are passionate about reptiles, conservation, and education, we can make the changes in our country that are so desperately needed to save our dragons. thanks for watching seeker indie's screening of saving dragons. we hope with stories like these about animals you may have never heard of that will inspire the change, we need to save them, because we definitely need more dragons in the world"
