H. wahlbergi permit or no permit

[Frank]

Just want to find out if a permit would be required for keeping these geckos as I believe their natural range does extend into the Northen Province of South Africa.

Thanks in advance

Depends where you are situated.

I'm in Gauteng.

In Gauteng all indigenous reptiles require permits to keep, so strictly speaking, you won't be able to keep it.

Thanks, I figured as much but just thought I'd check after seeing an ad on junkmail.
