People keep asking me if Axle is an illigal pet or they tell me he is illigal. I don't hear too much from PT, but alot else where & alot at home. Company comes & they tell me to go get Axle, I do & they tell the company its an illigal animal!!!! I get so darn mad, I walk away grumbling.
Well I finally found one of websites I read years back.
Game Reptiles & the Law
I'll addmit, I was wrong in some termology. I said pest, when it should have been game animal. opps. Nonetheless Axle is NOT illigal!!
I copied Chapter 3, section 40, subsection b. Just so u don't have to read the whole thing
(b) a person who keeps in captivity for the purpose of personal education a single game reptile, game
amphibian, …, specially protected reptile, specially protected amphibian … (for details on release see
section 46(4)); (Note: It is illegal to keep more than one individual of any species of game or specially protected reptile or amphibian in captivity. It is also illegal to keep more than one individual under these categories in captivity (i.e. one individual each of several species). This subsection was put in place to recognize that well-meaning individuals, often children for the home or classroom, pick up an animal which they find interesting. Individuals may possess this animal indeterminately. Release is not necessarily encouraged, unless it is immediate and in the location where the animal was captured. All other sections of the Act apply and an animal kept in captivity under section 40(2)(b) may not be sold, bred, consumed, served or killed.
