    Hey all

    Does anyone on the forum know much about, or keep, a terrapin?

    Where would be a good place to get advice on how best to look after one?
    Also info on legality etc.

    Many thanks
    Figeth

    If it is a local terrapin, you will need to approach Cape Nature Conservation regarding the possibility of getting a permit.
    If is is an exotic terrapin, they are all blacklisted.
