ah, mac certification, that's a whole other ballgame.

i was reading in the latest national geographic that while chiru (deer-like mammals from tibet) are protected under chinese law, chinese military men and politicians have been arrested for poaching them. how do we know mac is doing what they say they are doing?

i don't think it would be easy to stop livestock that wasn't ordered from coming in, but couldn't J&L avoid selling something like seahorses to less-experienced aquarists? i realize they've got a bottom line to worry about, but it would be nice if they could just say "no"
