Default controversial program from NI

BBC iPlayer - The Lion, the Keeper and the Dealer

Its quite interesting I didnt know this many people were keeping big cats ect in NI until recently, apparently its kicked up quite a fuss amongst keepers in NI and theres been alot of complaints about it already.

this makes me wonder how many DWA animals are over in england with out a License.

I was offered a Rattle Snake or a Speckled caiman with out a licanse about two years ago. But I would have though you'd hear about someone getting bitten every now and again.

yeah should have got it, would have saved me loads of money, with the hole license fee, public liability insurance, the yearly vet fee, visits from the fire services to check to see how easy a rescue would be.....

it was one of the thing you've got to do in leeds.
Where they through everything in your way to stop you getting a DWA license.

Lucky I live in Huddersfield thats covered by Kirklees, where it isn't too bad.
As long as you get your license in early januray. cos they have a limited amount of licenses. So I heard.
