Hi KJ,

For a full review of the revised copy of the licence go here;

Tapirs and Zebras are still on licence.

Penguins are not.

yes, zebra are on the dwa.

from being a "horsey" person since i was 6, yes, my knowledge is that zebra are, in the main, a lot more unpredictable and dangerous, than the average horse.

there are, as always, exceptions.. there are evil horses and nice zebra, but in the main its the other way round.

and yes, tska handle anything from white tigers and camels (both of which we have handled sales for in the last 18 months incidently) down to harvest mice

I think it's because zebras have a much more powerful kick and bite for their size than a domestic horse. They would also probably kick or bite more readily.

TBH, l am not up to speed on the avian side of things.

And there are bound to be those that can probably answer this in a far superior manner to me.

I do know that there are different regulations governing 'close rung' in Europe to the UK.

Annex A covered birds l believe are all to be close rung and l believe show birds too.

The likes of Flamingo bred in the UK, do not require it, and l only know this as l occasionally sell this species.

I will try and find out more information from one of my clients for you.
