Quarantine would be top of the list. IBD!!! we are lucky here that we have only had a few cases and almost all of them can envolved exotics or natives in the same collection.
Imagine what would happen to wild popultions of reptiles if a bad disease got loose.
Thats the main reason npws won't legalise them, diseases. NPWS need to have some idea of the number of exotcis in the country before they do anything.
Importing reptiles wouldn't be nessecary as there is already plenty of exotics in OZ. We might as well try licsensing them but there would have to be a ban on trading for a year or so to eliminate as many diseased animals as possible.
I think if it's done properly there wouldn't be a problem but i would'nt be racing out to buy any of a while, theres not many i like.
