TWO Fordingbridge men who dumped five exotic lizards in bin bags and threw them into a hedge have been ordered to do 100 hours community service by magistrates.

The New Forest bench also ordered Rodney and Andrew Bews – Foster to each pay RSPCA costs of £1,113 and disqualified them from keeping reptiles for years.

They pleaded guilty at a previous hearing.
