Just matter of interest,
If your snake die, what is proper procedure? Do you have to freeze the body and keep it, or call Nat. parks, or just report it in your book.
I was thinking about this when i read the post about unlicensed keeper. |

Its a matter of personal choice. As far as i know, and correct me if im wrong, all you have to do is report the death in your book and you don't have to keep the body at all. I know I wouldn't want to keep a dead pet in the freezer  |

I have had the unfortunate experience of a snake dying while in my care.
Matt_011 you are totally wrong about sending it to the muesum as I had QP&W attending my house for a visit when I noticed the snake was dead after feeding it the day before, QP&W simply said note it your book as deceased and destroy the snake in any manner you see fit, so I buried in the backyard. |
21-Mar-03, 05:24 AM
| | | | Agreed, Grant. You are wrong on that one, Matt. However, I believe what you are mistaking this for is that 'restricted' reptiles up here must be taken to the musem within 14 days of their death, if I am not mistaken. |
21-Mar-03, 05:26 AM
| | | | Oh and the museum certainly doesn't give you your license, that's the LPCU of the EPA who does that, as you should know. |
