I have a question regarding getting a reptile license while studying in OZ.
Since Im not a "native" Australian, is it still possible for me to aquire a license so that I can keep carpet pythons while Im down there?
Brisbane or Sydney migth one of the places I should end up.

They control the licensing in QLD and you may be able to fire an email off to them to find out your answers. Keep the written answer and name you receive as reference. http://www.epa.qld.gov.au/nature_con..._and_licences/

|  | Regular Member | | | | | RE: Study in Oz and getting a reptile license For a carpet python, the basic license is all that is required in QLD. It isn't hard to obtain, make your application, send in the fees and *kazaam* you have it.
Only thing that might be a problem is your residency status, but I doubt it.
