there have been some good ideas put forward in the past to legitimise exotic reptile keeping in NZ a body needs to be formed to give a collective front when dealing with authorities
-
prove the history of the animal in nz
-
form a society, then apply to affiliate to the fnzas then start the above
-
costs maf money to do that easier for them to let someone else do it then they can say yay or nay if a standard prepared meets all the requirements then legally it should not be denied
-
continually replying keeps this conversation off track
-
some of us could work together
-
thanks nav now we are getting somewhere
-
do you have an answer for this or a way to counter it
-
it can be hard to understand amongst the rhetoric by your calculaions in that 2 years you could have made a lot of money

1960's methinks edit: :oops: you mean the thread with the ridgetails possibly didn't look at the date, just remembered seeing a thread in the past so searched monitors on here i still have a good memory left

i was merely trying to point out how assumptions could be made from what is posted communicating through the written word can get people offside with each other when face to face they may like each other it is indeed a "shame" to have watched all these threads ruined by a few and edited posts to make them more palatable, been a bit of work and probably not worth it :roll:

i would like a dollar for every time i have heard that question
-
there is always another point of view i think i understand where repto is coming from your first post on the forum created quite a reaction and subsequent posts as well you have given no indication of your experience in the hobby so some will be guarded in how they respond to you it might even be said with the name acanthurus that it could be a sock puppet account for varanophile as in varanus acanthurus, ridge tailed monitor as in this thread

i suppose one could assume they are asking a high price to ensure they go to a good home but then the ability to pay for something doesn't mean the ability to look after it is there as well

lifes lessons are not cheap sometimes

not a myth when you have a fair idea of animals sold and price they were sold at easy to make an estimation
-
at the time the only paperwork for iguanas was in containment at Napier that permit was only found by maf by accident yes the frogs were here previously, it was the origin of those particular frogs that was in question
-
do you mean the whites tree frog case?
-
the record keeping of permits for importation of reptiles pre 1995 is basically non existent this has created the grey area thats too hard for maf to deal with so basically now it is guilty until you prove innocence or that the reptile was in private hands in nz pre 1995

toppom may have some glass to repair it with
-
you don't need to look at it
