I thought this would be the best place to post this topic..

Is it illegal to keep native species from this country in captivity?

Only reason i ask is a friend of mine has been offered a 8 week old pet badger and apparently the parents of this badger are pets!

I cannot understand some people.

i not too sure on the law wether its wildlife act or badger act but i know that they cannot be kept as pets unless they are injured hence why wildlife rescue centers can keep them. so unless the parent badgers are permenantly ill or injured then it would be illegal to keep them.

Thats what i thought, and i have since told my friend thats these people with the badgers need to be reported..
