[Xenopus] Animal shipments

[National Xenopus Resource]

Hello All, 
Hope you all enjoyed the Xenopus conference as much as I did. It was good to interact with all of you and get to meet some new people. I look forward to future interactions with everyone and I encourage everyone to make use of this newsletter. 


Just thought I would pass along this link to a story in Nature regarding shipment of animals, as there is a direct impact on Xenopus shipments. Please be aware of this and make sure that if you have a chance to voice your opinion at your institution on this matter to do so. We do not want to have problems shipping frogs in the future.
