[QUOTE="entomology, post: 24013, member: 517"] Martin In a " nutshell" there are too many people keeping "exotics" of varied species not just tarantulas and they don't have the manpower to inspect every house, but everyone can be more vigilant and go the legal route and don't smuggle tarantulas etc and bring them into a province without the necessary permits. Once u have a bad name with nature con they will have an eye on you always. We can all do our part as we know what's right from wrong. I will not mention names, but I was called last year for certain people who were " bust" smuggling tarantulas and i cannot and will not help as it will " tarnish" my good name in the conservation community. Logic here takes precedence and we can all learn from others mistakes and not repeat them. [/QUOTE]
