title: [Centralized examination of zoo shop owners, a Hessian model: first experiences and perspectives].
abstract: A public permission based on Section 11 of the Federal Animal Protection Act is required for all owners of specialised zoo shops in Germany. The permission is conceded only on the premises that the responsible person has given proof of his professional skills and knowledge. A centralized examination procedure was established for the state of Hessia. This paper reports on the experiences with the procedure one year after its introduction.
