    so i know you cannot whatsoever export any natural life from Australia but what about importing??? I have my beloved beardie Nonamis that has never been sick or infected with anything and I have been really wishing to return to Australia and reside there for at least a year. I absolutely would do not want to just leave him behind :) does anyone know of what the exact rules are regarding this??? thanks a bunch for any information! :D

    Absolutely not allowed.

    Many reptiles can carry diseases without any external sign. We already have IBD in our snakes because someone decided to import boas illegally.

    Besides, why take a ham sandwich to a picnic? Beardies come from Australia, bringing one back is like selling snow to the Inuit. :(
