Sugar Glider Registry
I'm curious as to how many people would be interested in registering their gliders... I plan on starting a registry next year.
The 3 main purposes of the registry are:
- monitor breeding of gliders (prevent accidental inbreeding)
- allow breeders/former owners to track gliders
- hopefully prevent rescues/help rescues get placed
To register a glider, owners will have to fill out a form with basic information on the owner and a description of the glider. A registration # will be issued and that glider will be monitored through out the rest of it's life.
There will be a section to register as a breeder, which would allow people who breed to post ads, access an on-line waiting list, and pay an annual discounted registration fee for joey registration.
Rescues would be able to register for free, as would all rescue gliders. There will be a rescue fund (made up of all excess money from registration fees and donations). As, we'll hopefully be able to set up a nation wide railroad...
The SGAA will be a non-profit organization. Money from registration fees will be used to pay for: web hosting, registration certificates, postage, and any other running expenses. All expenses will be post for public viewing so that everybody can see where their money is going. Any excess money will go into the sugar glider rescue fund.
Also, any and all suggestions are welcome. Feel free to post here or post at my forum...
