reuben.a Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 ive been looking through the forum and couldnt find a thread on native reptiles and enclosures. im sure it would be useful for people getting into natives as its hard to get at the info on the nzhs website. so post away!

mts sufferer Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm pretty sure it is illegal to keep native New Zealand reptiles as pets without a permit from DOC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueether Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 It is, but the permit isn't all that hard to get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cricketman Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Part of the permit is where do you intend to source the specimens... Pays to know someone with natives to go through it with you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
