AQIS: Life in Quarantine

Abstract

The paper goes over a short history of AQIS and the various parts that were included in the program as well as an overview of Risk Analysis from text sources. The paper then goes into what it would take to bring Nutmeg, my dog, from the US to Australia and back. The end of the paper proper covers Steve Irwin, and the many reactions to him that people seem to have. The paper includes my own observations, those of the people I worked with, and those from AQIS material. Included also are personal reflections of my time in Perth, and a short list of things that I've learned in that time. As well as the forms required if one wish to import a dog.
