Why aren't we allowed to purchase animals at the show? I am not saying it is a bad thing or anything just curious as to why?

My dad was fascinated by this stall, this it was the first time he had saw GTP's.

Because DERM don't make any money out of it.

 

[miss_mosher]

I don't get why DERM didn't have a stall. Would be good to talk to some officials from the department rather than make assumptions about all their confusing regulations. I swear QLD parks and wildlife weren't nearly as confusing a decade ago...

I haven't been keeping reptiles in Australia for that long, and i am starting to sense that DERM aren't as good as they made them selves out to be haha

Even though DERM allowed us to sell reptiles last year at our Scales & Tails Festival in Ipswich, we've since been instructed that it was illlegal and until the legislation changes there is nothing that any of us who host Expos in Qld can do. All we can do is work on getting the legislation changed. We're all onto it, but it takes time.
Cheers,
Joy
