Gtp theft from scales and tails adelaide

[Albs]

Very sorry to hear that some low life has stolen snakes from Gavin at scales and tails, was just on news. They stole an adult pair of gtp's and a croc. Please can everyone keep an eye out. I really hope they can be caught.... Bast@#$%

Bugger. Good luck with the hunt.

This sort of thing just seems to be getting more and more common.

I think low life have realized the price of certain types of snakes, do theft does seem to be happening more often.

Gavin and Debbie didnt deserve that, just finished getting set up too. Hope the mongrels are caught

That really sucks.. So unfortunate, and I hope the low life's get what they deserve. I will keep an eye out, I'm not sure what much there is to do, but all that the public can do, is the better.

These thefts are becoming more and more common it is making it scary for us keepers. These people are obviously familiar with Pythons, Ven's, Crocs and other reptiles.. So they know what their looking for, and what they need to target. Everybody, do your best to make you collections secure. Even though a secured store was robbed, we need to do everything we can to make it harder for these lowlifes.

I can remember that shop. Though I have purchased very little from there ( just a couple of real click-clicks ) it is the place where I found out you can legally keep snakes. And I saw my first jungle there. Hope they catch the guys.
Also why steal a croc? Aside from the shear difficultly and danger of taking a large unwilling toothy critter from its enclosure, you can always buy one from a croc farm for around $200.

l know Gavin & Debbie Forman both very well, l use to go and stay at their home for a weekend once a year between 1997 and 2002, they both always made me feel welcome each time l went over to Adelaide for a few days.

l feel sorry for them both to have their new shop broken into, and have 2 of their awesome GTP and 1 Fresh Water Crocodile both stolen, that is very sad to hear and l hope they catch the crooks and lock them up for 5 or more years, l also hope the Reptile's are being well cared for and if they do find them they are all still in 100% good health.

Gavin Forman, sure help me to learn alot about sexing and breeding Reptile's, and l thank him for what l have learned from him between mid 1996 & 2005, without his help or advice on Reptile keeping l myself would not know as much as l do today.

Really, the reps were probably sold before they were stolen. Sounds pretty targetted. Hope they get ripped off AND caught. (and the reps go home)

They've recently moved from Prospect Road to Research Road - brand new shop, bigger shop... I was absolutely GOB-SMACKED when I found out (had a friend call me about it...) - and to take Gav's "baby" too... (the croc)... Sooooooo hope they catch the mongrels!

Ditto here mate! Gav and Deb have been absolutely brilliant over the years - even know how I like my coffee! I always make the trip out there for a cuppa and catch-up when I'm in Adelaide - always refreshing to chat with them! I just wish there was something I could do to help - besides keep ears and eyes open! Of all people to have this happen to, it's totally rotten... They're good people, Karma will get the thieves!

I heard it on the radio yesterday but didn't know it was them. I was only in there on sunday when i bought my Bredli and I was talking to them about the GTP's. I hope they catch the scumbag bastards that did it and that they get their animals back in healthy condition.
