a friend had this up on his blog from playing a psytrance party in the huatesca mountains of monterrey, mexico. luckily for them the area was covered in thick, mat like colonies of peyote growing close together. this one that he found was really unusual looking. just thought i'd share the pic.

Very cool.
I hope they didn't harvest any other wild Lophophora.

I don't see anything wrong with taking one if there was 100s and they plan on cultivating it.

according to him, very few people went hunting for them , because few were from the area and knew where to look. hes a Dj so of course, if he asks for peyote the locals are going to help him out
it wasnt a big party, from the looks of the rest of the pictures, and the place is so remote i doubt there is any overharvesting taking place. it certainly isn't being harvested there like it is in Real de Catorce, or San Louis Potosi.

I think it's pretty fucked up to harvest wild peyote.
Unless you plan on using it for propagation and cultivation of the species.

Indeed, greater respect should be given to this rare fruit. I don't think even taking one wild peyote is forgivable considering what is happening to them and how slow they grow.
If you want to try it, grow it.

i think the scope of peyote endangerment has to be taken into account of places outside of real and such popular places. there are vasts amounts of habitat in the chihuahaun that is untouched by civilization and visited by very few people.yes peyote needs to be protected because of the rate at which it is being picked for human consumption (esp the native american church, which consumes hundreds of thousands of buttons per year) but that doesn't mean it is a "fucked up" act to harvest it in areas where its abundant, taking care to cut it above the root to allow for new pups to grow. treating it as a sacred sacrament and ingesting isn't fucked up IMO.

that wasnt me dude, it was a friend. i think he picked it to eat it. its ok, in 15 years or so there will be full grown pups replacing that one. obviously you can see, it has been properly separated from the root, so a new one can grow.
man i wouldnt have posted this if i knew there was gonna be so much whining and bitching. 
i just thought it looked cool.

It is endangered in the USA.
There are Lophophora left in Mexico...but I wouldn't say tons.
I think if somebody took only one or two and planned on cultivating them, collecting seed and then growing more...
I think that would be ok.
It would be nice if these people would go back out to the wild after 10-15 years when the have a few peyote to spare...and plant a few.
Proper harvesting is also very important.
