These are all critically endangered species regulated under CITES. Relocating them to the UK involves not only the usual pet transport procedures but also endangered-species export/import permits, CITES documents and UK quarantine requirements, so preparation takes longer than for ordinary pets. Canlife works closely with the relevant authorities and can handle the paperwork to make the whole process smoother.
