Hey there,

We have just visited a pet shop in King's Lynn that sells fish primarily and a small reptile section.

We just witnessed an extremely emaciated Leopard gecko in the store. The animal doesn't have much longer than 12 hours left and its too far gone to be saved.

Animals die, of course. That can't be avoided, but unfortunately the animal is still on display and FOR SALE.

When I pointed out that the animal is 'on the way out', the owner laughed and said, "It's okay he's just dropped his tail, he's fine." When we explained that we keep and breed hundreds of geckos every year, so know what we are talking about, he immediately became incredibly aggressive and shood us out of the shop.

We managed to get a photos of the gecko in question, and we feel strongly enough about it to report it. As we live in Australia and are here on holiday visiting family, we aren't sure who to report them to.

I appreciate that nothing will probably come of it, but I still want to report it.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

I am hearing this all too often.
from many sources.

you should report the business to the R S P C A . other than them
i dont know any other animal wellfare that holds the powers they do.
they are near police....

ppl please report and tell your friends about all these dodgy places selling reps and other things.

The local council would be the people to go to as they are ones that grant the licence to the shop.

Thanks guys, will report the shop to both

the RSPCA don't have any powers, they're just a charity. You need to report anything to the council and the council only.

ok well i thought they did, ( have powers )
as when they go to a house that has been reported to them,
being able to take any ill treated / unhealthy animals from the prmises would seem like power.
i would have thought that shops are not an exception.

power or not ?

I assume the Rspca will have the same amount of power as the Sspca in scotland.
Our pet shop has been reported, and the Sspca were down investigating the very next day. Was a waste of their time though, apparently it was just someone who had a grudge against the shop trying to give us a bad name because there was nothing wrong.

Point is, the Rspca would be worth phoning. They take things like this seriously.

they do have powers they just cant do some things without the polices consent
has no one seen animal 24 7? lol x

they're not allowed to, but a lot of people think they can do it so they don't tell them to sling it; they just accept that they have power. They've no more power than the Salvation Army have.
