Malaysia is one of the most biodiverse places in the world, populated by a rich collection of wildlife that often cannot be found anywhere else on the globe.
Much of the biodiversity is, unfortunately, under threat from a variety of causes, including deforestation, climate change, and invasive species. Given this situation, it makes sense that there are strict controls on which animals can and cannot be imported, bred, or kept as pets in the country.
