Alberta woman fined $15,000 for illegally importing wild serval cats.

An Alberta woman was fined $15,000 for illegally importing two serval cats, large African wild cats, into the province with plans to breed them. Serval ownership is illegal without strict permits, typically only available to zoos, due to the cats' wild nature and potential risks to public safety and wildlife. The cats were purchased in British Columbia and Quebec and are now housed at the Edmonton Valley Zoo.
