And... just to make you jealous
I work in a Reptile Zoo and we have a Natrix natrix there.
We are a shelter for mistreated and dumped and seized reptiels, amphibians and invertebrated animals.
A few yaers ago we got a Natrix natrix. Do not know where it came from, but it is a kind of spastic and its body is badly developed. Ther are a lot of strange twists in his body.
Eventhough it does well. It cannot be placed back in the wild because of its handicap and because we do not know from where it came.
So... I can keep a Natrix natrix legally
