My grandpa said when he was a kid; he climbed a tree, took a baby raccoon out of its nest and raised it to be a pet. This was in Michigan, more than 70 years ago
Seeing Texas and Florida on there tells me there must be very good reasons for it to be illegal.
I mean, you’re not wrong. In Florida, it’s illegal to have sex with porcupines, so you know they don’t have the best decision makers.
Even as an European I understand want you’re saying.
I think it’s kinda funny that a comment about understanding contains a typo
So in PA this is a weird one. You can have just about anything with an exotic animal permit. In order to get an exotic animal permit, you pay $50/yr, but you also need two years training with someone who has an exotic animal permit AND is specifically permitted to handle the type of animal you’re trying to handle. There are also rules around getting various animals at both the state and federal level, and a few species are exceptions because of their potential to go feral and ratfuck our entire ecosystem but assuming the getting is legal the having is also legal with the permit.
This person raccoons.
Made sense until that last clause.
“But assuming the getting is legal the having is also legal with the permit.”
Could use a rephrase, or at least a comma. Am I interpreting this correctly?
“If it’s legal to get, it’s legal to have with the permit.”
