About 48,000 people live here, but that doesn't include people in the smaller surrounding towns and villages.

The 17th largest municipality in Finland. Coincidentally, I study in the city that's ranked 71.

We have well working pet stores in smaller towns like that!
Do you have less herpetoculturists in Finnland?

Yes, we do. A lot less.

You used to be able to find herps in the city where I study, which has a population of just over 14,000. It went out of business a few years ago. So did the two pet stores we used to have in my home town when I started keeping herps in the late 80's.

As far as I can tell, the closest pet store that sells herps (or should I say: over-priced corn snakes) is 50km away. Doesn't keep garters, but will order them, which would otherwise be nice, except for the fact that you need to contact them well in advance and you'll never know what they'll get.

A pet shop is definetly the wrong place to look for garters in Germany because there are so many private breeders who take much better care of them and have more rare species or morphs as well.

[Stefan-A]

Here, the right place to look for garters, is Germany.

[zooplan]

when will you come?

[Stefan-A]

I wish I knew.

You just have to decide
students are know to be free like the wind

[Stefan-A]

Yeah, but I'm too old to be a student anyway. I never really enjoyed travelling, either. And it's too damn expensive.
