Fisherman Mike Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Captive bred only in countries ouitside of the Mountainous regions of Taiwan. have been on the endangered species lists for some years. Chap in Gloucestershire had some when I was a lad along with Goldens, Elliots, Reeves, Lady Amherst cant beat a nice cock Golden in full mating regalia in my opinion.
