Has anyone spotted the Pinus Hwangahanen yet ? aka the 800 year old Yingkesong - magic photos of it out there.

Me thinks it would look much nicer with a Tibetan Flag fluttering from it.

If you you are reading this thread one must assume that you feel strongly about the subject in question.

An affordable way to make a stand would be to trade in your Chinese Cave Gecko for a Tibet Frog Eyed Gecko. I recommmend the service here http://atbgeckos.com/id72.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Go on show your support
