Update for today
RSPCA Inspector and DSE Wildlife Officer came to view the snake this morning at my place. Photos were taken and the snake was examined. The vet is providing a written report to both departments.
A formal statement was typed and signed and submitted to both the RSPCA and DSE.
They then left my house to go to formally interview the seller.
DSE are now going to investigate the seller and its looks like at the minimum the seller will receive a fine of $2000 for selling sick or injured licensed wildlife. With any luck they will throw the book at this seller, and seize whatever this seller has left in there care.
RSPCA are preparing a brief to charge the seller.
Hopefully all will go well with the investigation and it looks that this seller is not going to get away with this, at the minimum the seller is getting at least 1 fine from what i understand.
I am very impressed with the professionalism of the RSPCA and DSE.
