'Quite afraid': Exotic cats on the loose near Qualicum Beach area have locals on edge
Posted: Oct. 4, 2022 5:12PMResidents living in a small community near Qualicum Beach say they’re living in fear after two African servals managed to escape from a property in the area.
The BC Conservation Officer Service said it’s aware of the situation but notes servals aren’t regulated under“As they are considered domestic pets and not wildlife, this falls outside the mandate of the COS,” it said. The non-profit has been pushing all municipalities and governments to adopt exotic pet laws that prohibit the keeping of serval cats, especially after its staff seized 13 servals living in “horrific” conditions near Kamloops in 2019.
