Here in Finland we hear awful stories from Norwegian. That law makes me angry. It just doesn't make any reason why that law exists. Such a narrow minded thing to deny right to keep reptiles. Mad

did they actually say what the purpose of this law is?

animal protection?
Human protection?
Just for fun? Shocked

Welcome to Captivebred Very Happy

Don't worry your English is just fine and better than my Norwegian! Laughing

I don't understand WHY Reptiles as pets are illegal though? Confused

Welcome to CaptiveBred Very Happy

It must be quite worrying though, because you can't just drop your hobby into conversation with the fear of people telling the authorities.

Is there a black/underground market then? How do you find the animals you want without getting caught?

What a daft law Rolling Eyes

Thank you

yes it is, www.repti.net

It must be several houndred norwegian that a selling and buying there.

The reason its not allowed with reptiles in Norway is because they are afraid that if the reptiles escape they will destroy the wildlife, which i mean is 'cow dung', its very few species of reptiles that would survive here up north..
