Keeping exotics? Be warned

[adbacus]

Just found this thread.

Shame they were euthanaised, but they shouldn't have had them anyway and the FINE should've been a hell of a lot steeper than what they received. $1500 - not gonna have that big of an effect IMO

there are so many ppl around that keep exotics, the fine should be alot bigger i believe

A man has been convicted and fined $1,500 for illegally keeping two exotic pythons at a property at Colac, near Geelong.

> A small amount to pay... $1500 for two snakes we would normally only dream about.! Bump up the fine and there maybe more of an effect...
