In this case, the snake is being sold proudly at a high price. If nothing happens here, it'll mean that they're basically saying "It's okay to 'accidentally' hybridise whatever you want, go for it, make your Carpondros, Womets, etc etc, then charge what you like for it".
I may be wrong, perhaps this is already perfectly acceptable by the NSW NPWS.
