But basically you have to send off for papers from defra, as long as the parents have papers then your ok on the babies front.

It's wild harvest of a highly endangered species.

What's the deal?

Typically speaking you will need to prove that the animal is captive bred to get papers.

This will be for a specific breeding program. Zoos do this regularly, I want to know what the process is. Anyone know who I should be speaking to?

An official in defra I would imagine

Added.. if there are different rules for zoos to private keepers, I would imagine you would surely need a zoo license to qualify for them.

In addition to 'standard' CITES rules, there are also the EU specific ones to contend with - as far as I understand, you will also need to find out which EU Annexe this particular species is in (most likely Annexe A if it is Annexe I CITES, but the EU Annexes have some differences to 'standard' CITES).

Basically, a bit more legislation to trawl through
