What's it name Morris,but seriously this man is exploiting endangered wildlife for financial gain,it should be 3rd time and you go to jail,a 500 Thb fine is not going to cut it,as all he will do is get another one and be back on the streets. regards worgeordie 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
