Reptiles abandoned at airport

Very sad, the incompetence at that airport astounds me at times!!!! Some people just don’t value any kind of life here.

Re: Reptiles abandoned at airport

Isend the local SPCA a eamail about this here it is:

Dear

At present, we have not been advised on this issue but will update everyone through our newsletter once any kind of confirmation or statement has been given to us on the matter.



Thank you for caring – such a sad story and we all hope that they will indeed have a future.



With kind regards



Chris Kuch

Hi



I was curious what would happen to these animals once they come out of quartine?

Re: Reptiles abandoned at airport

I personally think they will ship them back. The local SPCA has a were strong feeling about keeping exotic pets. They don't like it at all. So much that they have it on their www that these animals should be left in the wild. My feeling is that dogs and cats were exotic pets once ( ok very long ago) but still if the animal has been captive breed and is in the care of somebody that takes good care of it whats the issue. And a insident like this just gives them more ammo to feel that way.

There are good strong arguments on both sides of this issue. It would make a good topic for a debate.
