I'm still not getting it. You are fined because the zoo are not following the regulations? Or are the regulations based on pure gibberish, stating that different amphibians should be housed together?

He's saying that the zoos regulations are outdated and wrong and the fined him for tampering with zoo property. They had to reduce the charge because they had to admit they were wrong. Also because even though he did the right thing it still violated their regulations. Basically they just wanted to get some money out of it anyway so they fined him $100.00. Its still a loud of ****. I think they need to do some research on here. They might learn something.

yah ther secound one they have houseing regulations for certent animals like frogs and toads which will require them to be housed togeather
when i removed the cuban tree frog from the tank i broke a regulation and was fined for it till i sent then the post vea email and had my fine reduced to 100.00 for not cooperating with a fwc offical

i think its better that they be seperated anyway but they were becase of regualtions

I understand that, but ignorance on the regulations part does not justify fining someone due to an incorrect or poorly written regulation.

Maybe a better solution on the state and zoo's part would be to have you assist in the correction of the regulation. This would be more beneficial to the zoo and it's wildlife, having a corrected regulation that requires the research of proper housing needs for each animal prior to creating a multi-species enclosure.
