Did You Know Rabbits Are A No No In Qld?
On a recent trip to Brisbane I found out that pet rabbits are a big no no!!. They are considered pests :scared: .
Before we came over to Oz we promised the kids they could have a pet rabbit, luckily for them we are in Sydney where they arn't banned!! But for all those parents who have promised the same, heading for Queensland, its time for a re-think
WHEEZY

The crazy thing is that they still sell cuddly toy rabbits and the like in the toy shops. You'll just have to settle for a pet goanna

Theres loads of laws that seem funny to outsiders, like not being able to take bananas interstate
but theres always a reason behind it.

you cant have hamsters in QLD either - on a recent trip to LA, my partner held/saw his first ever live hamster
I think there's a list on the QLD gov website about what pets you can and cannot have.
