please take a few minutes to red through this it is very important and concerns the future of out hobby.
the FHB and other organisations NEED our support in figting for our rights to keep these exotic animals as pets.
please dontate to them even if its only £1 they need all the help they can get and also please contact your local MEP's asking if they will help support us.
i have donated and will be emailing various MEP's shortly.
we need to act now and help support the hard work these people are doing to safeguard out hobby

this is what i sent to my local MEP'S and to the ukip political party, im not the best at these things but it gets the piont across.
feel free to copy this an change it abit if you want.
dear sir's i am contacting you requesting your help an assistance
regarding the EU's upcoming directives concerning reptile and exotic
pet keeping, breeding and import/export.
please could you take a few minutes to read through the information in
this link.
http://www.fbh.org.uk/news/1209_euark_sumnmit.html
as you have hopefully read on the FBH's website that the reptile
community and the people that fight against the extremist animal rights
groups ect were not consoulted on the matter untill an american forum
member informed the FBH officials at the last minute.
if the EU implenent a "white list" of animals it will be extremly
damaging to the uk's large reptile industry and cause a very large
number of people who work in the industry to be put out of work if
there was a blanket ban on keeping these animals and it could cause
millinons of animals to be removed an killed for no reason.
while i and most people in the reptile community understand there needs
to be something done regarding invasive alien species a blanket ban is
not the way forward instead any species that could become invasive to a
certain climate/ecosystem of which there are very few that would
survive the uk's winter should be microchipped and a record kept of who
the legal owner is similar to the CITES issue with some rare species of
boa constrictor.
i know a lot of people dont like reptiles and think they are weird or
are scared of them yet a few years ago a study in the uk showed that of
6million dog/cat ownere there were 8.5million+ people who keep
reptiles.
im not sure what your thoughts are on reptiles/amphibians but the
reptile community shows just as much love an care for our reptiles as
people who keep cats, dogs ect perhaps more as the specialits equipment
and vets fee's if needed cost more that it would for a cat or other
animal.
if theres anything you can do to help us then please do and help stop
the possible death of millions of very loved family pets and help stop
the EU controlling what we are allowed to to do in our great country.
thank you for taking you time to read this
yours sincerly and thank you in advance
