How to buy and import a domesticated elephant?
Does anyone know how you would go about acquiring and importing some domesticated elephants from I would guess India, Sri Lanka or Thailand ? I have
googled the subject and I guess its a bit esoteric even for Google to find. I am not even sure whether you would transport them by ship or plane?

Once it is in the UK you would need a Dangerous Animal license which also includes other animals such as tigers, lions, ostrich etc. More info here

Are you fed up of the horses now Jon? Get some more chickens, at least they lay eggs. I've heard elephant dung is good for gardens though, is
that your plan?
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

A horse might be easier Jon .... but they don't give as much manure for the roses

Get a baby one - the shipping costs would be a lot less.

Shipping it is the easiest way, just get it packaged in a large trunk

I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.
