If your pet becomes ill
An animal that is sick, injured or showing other signs of illness, an urgent need to get the necessary care. Contact your veterinarian if you notice that your snakes or lizards are not feeling well.

In some cases, you need permission
If you run a business activity with snakes and lizards or you are leasing, storage and feeding of others snakes and lizards on a larger scale, you need permission from the provincial government. An activity is more extensive as it is conducted with six or more terrariums.

Requirements for special permits to keep snakes varies from municipality to municipality. Contact the Environment office in your municipality to find out about the local laws where you live.
