Because of all the trouble they've had with cats, rabbits and cane toads I believe...

Australia are very tight on imports and you have to be a zoo or institution believe - I am still confused how granite spotted pythons and albino olive pythons got into europe!

I think it was germany or holland that had them first but how did they import them from australia? into a zoo? and then breed from the zoo and release to private keepers/breeders?

Errr, basically they're smuggled............... Possibly??!!!

P.S. (edited). I'm referring to the specimens / bloodlines that produced the granites and albinos. The actual morphs would almost certainly have been produced in the countries mentioned in a captive breeding program.
