Moving Countries?

[Jyuuka]

Heeey guys,
This is a question that has been on my mind for a while...

If, in the next few years or so, I decided to move to the USA or to the UK, am I allowed to bring my Diamond Python with me? If so, are there specific documents or anything I'd need to fill out? This is completely out of curiosity, as I haven't even finished VCE yet.

Please reply if you know any info! x

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news mate, the answer is No, you cannot export native reptiles overseas....

aww that sucks, i guess i'm staying in australia then >< i couldnt give up my baby...

Yes unfortunately you couldnt take it. We moved to the UK 18 months ago had had to get rid of a fairly big collection but the trade off is we now have access to all the same animals plus 100's more species. I wouldnt base a possible move on one snake to be honest.

Plus you'd be in England. Gah.

yeah, but that's the commitment i made when i bought Dexter, to care for him through his whole life. it might sound weird idk, but he helps me a lot with my mental illness.

I agree, Anxiety and depression is soothed by my jungle, Anarchy.

 

[Jyuuka]

yes! exactly. Dexter helps so much with my anxiety and depression, he's just so calm and makes me feel like things will be okay because he's there- and will be for plenty of years to come.
