With four legs and hair. Wait a minute, that's a dog. Seriously though, what are the laws like in other countries. From what I can remember you don't need permits in the UK for anything non-venomous. Here in Japan there's an antiquated list of "dangerous" animals which need a permit and have strict rules applied to them, including tagging with a chip. Burms, retics and boa constrictors are all on the list, even if it's a dwarf variety. On the other hand, you can go out and buy a 3 metre Boelen's or Olive python and nobody bats an eyelid.
