hello fellow herpers, i'm a current resident in the state of WA and i've just found out that i will not be able to import a Spotted Python, the snake ive been wanting for years, is this true? :?
 
As far as i know all you need to do is apply for a transfer permit. I'm in qld but, not sure about WA

There are no imports into WA of pythons from other states, It is illegal!!!
People in WA are only allowed to keep animals that are native to that state and on thier approved keep list.

Wa allowes exporting, But do you home work on it as its a costly exersise if you are after 1 or 2 animals.
 
To export and animal from WA it costs you $180 on top of what you pay for the snake but not sure if its a once off for all the snakes you purchase in a bulk lot or per snake.

$180 covers the first 5 animals then its $10 per animal on top plus freight charges
as well

Doubt it and I dont blame em you guys have some of the nicest pure snakes and also native plants that aren't found anywhere else in the world. If the law doesnt suit you and you are able to, move to another state.
And I dont mean that in a nasty way either.:D
 
Look into getting a Stimson - many WA ones are nicer looking than most spotted's that are getting around anyway.
