Westrand Herpetological association - July

[Cornelius]

Good day

It is time once again for the monthly West Rand Herpetological association meeting
Date: 01/07/2011
Time: 19H15
Venue: Heia Safari Lodge

Topic: This month we will be visited by Wendy Wilson from the NSPCA, she does the following

 She works for the NSPCA as a National Inspector for the Wildlife Unit.
 She is responsible for the welfare of the animals that are transported (imported and exported) at the airports.
 She also oversees the skills of the persons handling the parcels / containers at the airports.

Her talk will be to provide / guide us with the correct information as to when we "ship" snakes around via airports as well as the illegal smuggling they come across at the airports.
This will be a good one for everyone who ever had questions or doubts concerning this topic.
Please be so kind as to confirm your attendance.

As per usual food and drink will be available on the night in support of Heia Safari

Bring along a friend

Best regards,
Cornelius Viljoen

Hi Corne

Yes, I will be there!! Thanks for the invitation.

I agree with you that this will be a good one. Knowledge is power and to know what is expected of you when you send a snake via air to someone else, will be of benefit to you, the animal and the health of the animal.

With the next breeding season almost upon us, let us all make use of this opportunity to gain the knowledge and information we require, to do it correct - first time!! This will ensure that the animals that we care for so much, will fly and be treated as a VIP.

I hope to see a huge crowd on 1 July 2011!!

I will make every effort to attend.
