Good point ... the stress from shipping would certainly add to anything underlying. I suspect that most if not all of the Pugets originated from the same source. I have not seen anyone, anywhere claim otherwise. No one actually volunteers that info but if you asked I suspect that to be true. What is of concern is that it would seem the den(s) of these wonderful animals are being pillaged to have such a large supply of these creatures readily availaable from one source.

Best,
