yes obee, I agree, by all means look after the wombats if you like (which, as I'm sure you know, they are, in fact I spent time today with Dr Paul Sunnucks, one of the guys who has done swags of work with them). Ideally, we'd do it with all species, but this isn't possible. However, there are heaps of people more than willing to work with Chondros, so the cost would be zero. There may well be more now than 100 years ago and I'm not saying they're under any immediate threat, but any species with a limited distribution which can have heaps learned about and an auxilliary population established at no cost should be brought into captivity. Not to mention that fact that it would bring great pleasure to many people, which surely is a good thing. I see no negatives and many positives in this case.
