Hey can any of you regonise this rodent? I saw it at farmart last week. Though it is a rat,but observe carefully its not. The tail is fat and naked,not longer than ordinary rat. The nose is much sharper and pointed than rat. the eys is also small. According to one of the shop owner, she say its the descendant of elephant and 1 more animal. It call " tree shew,chew" something like that.

And people who trade in exotic animals should themselves be stuck in a cage, sent halfway around the world and then dumped in a totally unsuitable habitat.

It may well be selling illegal pets here. As he is only shipping in Singapore and most have just hatched it would appear he is smuggling eggs into the country and hatching them then selling the illegal animals as pets. I am thinking about contacting AVA to check him out.
Will have to check further........

Whether or not 'there is anything for you to worry about' remains to be seen. Yes one of us would likely call the CNB if you were selling drugs since this board like anything else has to abide by the law. As for your last sentence, you can think what you like but when you make remarks like that think how it makes
you look.
