The Manager of Imo State Zoological Garden, Dr Francis Abioye, has cautioned Nigerians against killing protected animals including reptiles like python, saying doing so would attract jail term.

Abioye gave the warning on Thursday when he mobilised members of the zoo task force to arrest a resident of Nekede autonomous community in Owerri West Local Government Area of Imo, accused of killing a python.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the suspect, Mike Uzoma, allegedly killed the python and sold it on Wednesday.

The area where the python was killed is less than a kilometer away from the zoo.

However by the time the task force members got the community to effect the arrest, the suspect had fled.

The manager who addressed members of the community cautioned them against such act, explaining that all animals around the conservation area are protected by law.

Abioye warned that anybody who kills a python or any animal protected by the law will be arrested and prosecuted.

“I have come to educate all of you against the habit of killing animals that are protected by the law.

“Anybody caught killing such animal must be jailed because we cannot continue to watch people destroy our nature out of ignorance”, he said.

Abioye said rather than kill such animals, the residents should contact the zoo curator to capture them.

Some of the residents, who spoke, commended the manager for coming to educate them on why some special animals must be protected.

One of them, Mrs Angela Amaefula said she was ignorant of the law prohibiting the killing of some animals like python, and urged the zoo manager to make such enlightenment programme a regular event.

According to her, doing so would enable members of the public to become fully aware of the need to be friendly with such animals. (NAN)

Dangerous creatures should be picked up by zoo officials first. You don't expect any reasonable person not to kill a snake if they see one.

It's called Self defence



May we never come in contact which snakes n scorpions

Okay, Imo state govt gave an 'Abioye' appointment.

So what should we do about it?
Re: Kill A Python, Go To Jail, Zoo Manager Warn Nigerians by Adakintroy: 2:10pm On Feb 21, 2019
A rational world is no different from primitive cultural world.

In most societies it is a sacrilege to kill a python or certain kind of animals. In modern culture it is also an offense.

Dr Francis Abioye's zeal to protect certain animals is commendable, but should be backed up with positive action, not just threats of arrests.

If a python is seen in a public area or private compound, can the zoo task force be called to take away the reptile? Will the zoo task force respond promptly, and without charge?

Is there any written list of protected animals in Nigeria? I would like to see it.
