Brian Stewart is one of the long-tenure Panther Chameleon breeders I have worked with for many years. In this episode, he talks about what it was like to attempt to verify a local form in the mail before the internet, and how much easier we all have it today. He also talks about some of his breeding philosophy and preferences after having lived through and seen thousands of animals over the years. I remember when I got started in 2015 hearing about these Brian Stewart babies and how big/healthy they are. He has been a role model and a goal post for many years and it was an honor to sit down with him here.

Jonathan is the founder of iPardalis which is a panther chameleon breeding facility that focuses on individual raising of panther chameleons to produce the highest quality juveniles. It is this push to bring our captive breeding husbandry forward that makes him an ideal candidate to host a podcast on this topic. He maintains an extensive genetic map of his breeding projects and an informative blog. You can learn more about what Jonathan does at his website iPardalis
