Fully agree mate, there are enough exotic pests in the country without
introducing more.

Dear All,

Yet another bit of lunacy by the pet industry. An application to  
import Silver Foxes (not the type that hang out in upmarket bars) as  
pets, has been lodged by someone in NSW. Fortunately most of our  
steamed leaders have not been terribly enthusiastic. Tony Burke, the  
Fed Environment leader has said "at first glance it seems insane".  
Personally, I think the idea is insane no matter how many glances, or  
even a long, hard stare are given to this idea. It is about as  
intelligent idea as the attempt to import Savannah Cats.
