Extend: Police were raid in a private house in Essex in the case of drug spread. Suddenly, they came across an alligator who guarded the "product". After receiving a search warrant, law enforcement officers found a huge cannabis farm and a stock of various knives, the Daily Star tabloid said. The house kept a reptile - Kayman originally from South America. Keeping a predator in private conditions is considered illegal, a special license is required. As a result, Kamen was removed from the owners.

"Drugs are harmful to the people of our communities, we make every effort to stop their production and sale. We also care about the well -being of the Kaymans and pass them on to the royal company to prevent animal abuse," - said police inspector Grace Dan Selbe. The dangerous wildlife law, adopted in Britain in 1976, obliges to obtain a DWA government license to keep wild, dangerous or exotic animals.

All kinds: from Tasmanian devils and gibbons to spiders and marine snakes are listed in this document. In total, 158 crocodiles are officially held in the UK as pets. Their owners are required to pay a license fee of more than $ 1300. In addition, the owners of predators provide the necessary information and documentation at the request of the authorities. The publication states that the suspects did not have the necessary licenses.

The man and the woman were arrested on suspicion of the production and storage of drugs for the purpose of their sale, as well as in the illegal possession of a predator. They were later released, but the couple is still under police supervision. We will remind, in the motel of the state of Michigan cleaners found a live alligator in one of the rooms. It was later revealed that he belonged to a man who travels with exotic animals and shows them to children in schools.
