    Shipping live animals over seas

    So I am taking off to Scotland here soon to spend some time with friends. During my stay my brother, who has never owned snakes, will be taking care of my two ball pythons. I may be pursuing a graduate program opportunity in Ireland for about a year. Since I have a person I trust to babysit my snakes during my leave I am not worried to leave them for a few months, however I am hesitant to leave them for longer than a year. I understand that travel for these animals can be so stressful it turns fatal, but I am curious about the process of shipping snakes from the US to the UK. I most likely will not bring my snakes over to the UK unless I end up building a permanent life overseas. I would still like to know my options and am wondering about holding periods if there are any. Any information will be helpful.
