By creating a law to restrict people from having exotic pets WILL result an increase of illegal captivity and trade. Already people are illegally keeping and caring for these pets and yet authorities are struggling to enforce this. Even those that do have permits, authorities don’t do check-ups before or after application. What is the purpose than? Rather educate people about the exotic pet trade and provide them with information and assistance. This will not only keep track of all (most) exotic pet trade, breeders and owners but might even decrease the neglection of these exotic pets.
