Per-animal records
Identification, acquisition, daily care, and what happened to every animal in your keeping — current, durable, and producible when the licensing officer visits.
England — the 2018 licensing regulations
Exhibition licence records, kept the way inspectors expect.
If you keep or train animals for exhibition in England — school visits, encounters, film and television — your licence comes from your local authority under the 2018 animal-activities regulations, and it arrives with record-keeping conditions attached. Those conditions are what EchidnaCare is built to satisfy.
What the licence conditions actually ask for.
The regulations' general conditions read like a records checklist: who your animals are, how they're cared for, who is trained to handle them, and what happens when something goes wrong. Inspection is where the checklist meets your filing.
Veterinary care, evidenced
Health checks, treatments, and medicines administration recorded against the animal — with the controlled-drug and medicines detail UK veterinary rules expect.
Diet and daily routine
Feeding plans and completed care tasks, day by day — the routine evidence that welfare needs are being met between inspections, not reconstructed for them.
Training and plans
Staff training records, procedures, and the emergency and welfare plans the conditions call for — versioned, assigned, and signed off in one place.
Which licence is yours?
Whether a facility needs a zoo licence or an exhibition licence turns on the facts of how it operates, and the exhibition regime is England-only — Wales and Scotland run different rules. Confirm the boundary with your local authority; this page is guidance for organising your records, not legal advice.
