Local breeder screwed over by neighbors!

Your definition of exotic is not the same as the one used out here in LaLa Land. I corn may be from the USA but it is not native to Ca and therefore, technically, requires a law abiding owner to have a valid wild animal permit. There is NO blanket rule, law or regulation regarding what permits are needed to keep exotics, non-venomous, the way we as hobbiests do. Also, bag limits, how many you're allowed to have, are in place in many cities, states, counties, what have you, that do not allow you to keep unlimited numbers of certain animals.

Perhaps a little research before you blow would help with that nasty taste of foot in mouth you're experiencing right now.

glad you can drop statastics like that, does it make you feel good, glad it does as my question about colubrids. was serious. but what ever buddy, good talking to you, I believe you were a lovely person to talk to back when i first joined aswell. Yes i blow just over some people reacted. homeboy should checked to see if he needed anything, that is correct, but some the things said were just out of line.
I guess that big platnium supporter pic on the side, gives you the right then..

The funny thing is... Bowser was the perpetually pissed off character in Mario Kart. I loved racing as him. I understood his pain!

You should not type on this forum while horny, that's an infraction waiting to happen. When you're happy, yes, this is a good place to type.

You're welcome.

You were more prepared than most... including myself obviously.

If anything comes from this, people will learn from my mistake to insure that they are indeed in compliance with any regs. My simple infraction was lack of a "exotic permit", so all I want to do is pay the 20.00 fee and be granted it. I meet all standards and regulations and have approval from my D.V.M (who is also based 1.5 miles from my home), local breeders and supporters as well as USARK etc. I WANT to follow the rules, I don't want them to turn a blind eye. That is not my intention.... but, I want them to use "common sense" in their justification... a 20.00 permit is all that is needed.

From the article, they made it seem like there was a law that prohibited the ownership of snakes, period. At least, that's what I got when I read it. If all you need is a permit to own them, but now they won't let you, that IS unfair. It would be one thing if you were ignorant of the law and had your animals poorly kept, but obviously you were recognized as having a good setup and keeping them properly AND you're trying to fix your mistake and get a permit... It seems silly and childish of officials to go "well you didn't do it before so now you can't at all". Basically, that would be saying "you can't get permits for THESE animals, but if you get rid of them, get a permit and start over then we WOULD allow it".

If you still have the packet of ordinances/laws/regulations that they gave you originally, I would bring that up as well. Not as a way for them to turn a blind eye, but to point out that you DID read up on the regulations and honestly weren't aware, but now you want to do what you need to to keep your animals.
