Importation
Im going to try and put in a poll what are your thoughts on Tasmanians importing Australian pythons and reptiles
as Tasmania has no pythons and very few lizards that can be kept as pets please poll (if it works) and post what you think

i believe that selected reptiles should be aloud in as they wouldn't be able to survive a Tasmanian winter let alone breed so please post your view on this point

yeh, you tassie herpers should at least get a select few reptiles, i mean theres what, 500,000 people in the whole of tassie?
seriously, how many snakes do they expect to escape, plus the price will be extreme for a few years, so nobody will want to ditch them......Last edited by FAY; 23-Dec-10 at 12:26 PM.

its better to make it leagle and let in animals that wont survie in tas than people smugling in turtles that will survive in the wild

well they were leagle about 5 years ago and a desise was brought in with them that was killing frogs thats why the gov is so anti-reptile

but i think if the reptiles are vet checked there aren't any probs even if they only let in males anything would be great
