Edited sentence: Efforts are being undertaken by the Queensland Ferret Society to change the laws in Queensland however after numerous petitions since 2004 the Queensland government remains strong on its side.It is difficult to understand why ferrets are given a name as a dangerous wild creature when animals such as cats, dogs and rabbits are less represented as the same when there is such documented evidences of there destruction.Lets hope that in the near future ferrets will be recognised as a harmless domestic pet in Queensland as they are in other states on Australia.Unfortunately it would seem that much of the information used by the Queensland government is not entirely accurate such as reported sightings of wild ferrets, which have later discovered to be domesticated ferrets
