In yesterday's mail I got a letter from the department. Usually I know what is going to be in any letter from the department. Eg: Licence renewal, permit etc. I was more than a little curious to open it.
It turned out to be a brochure reminding herpers about the elegalities and dangers of keeping exotics.
Did anybody else receive one of these?
(I mean the closest thing we have to an exotic is the couple of gold fish we have in the turtle ponds to eat mosquito larva... )
It is a moderately interesting read...

In Victoria, boa constrictors and corn snakes are the most commonly kept and traded exotic reptiles. Some are traded illegally through pet stores but most are sold by individuals.
The only exotic amphibian that can be legally kept in Victoria is the Axolotl, or Mexican Walking Fish. No permit is required.
