NATCON PETITION

I've had my monkeys for 7 years. I take excellent care of them and they are my children. I'll get the permit if I have to and the requirements are reasonable. Monkeys are not pets they are our children, for those who cant have any and the greatest non human company for the lonely. They play an integral part in peoples well-being and I dont know of a single person who owns a Monkey who is ill treating it. Much can be said about some breeders and a forum to set up and apply regulations to protect them from being ill-treated will be welcome, but to force people to give them up is unthinkable and cruel. Dont understand the logic behind it. Permits for trading and exporting I do understand. Would like to know what the procedure will be to get a permit to keep my monkeys and the cost that will be involved. How will it affect my breeding and selling of babies.
