That is rediculous.I think they need to have hard scientific evidence to do something stupid like that.
I understand and support conservation of wild populations. but if those species aren,t threatened why do that. All I have to say is, they better not try this in Oklahoma or there will be hell to pay.

Administrative agencies don't need scientific data in order to make a rule. Luckily for us, though, we live in the USA, where 553+ hybrid rulemaking is the norm rather than the exception. Because this is a "notice and comment" situation, the agency is required to keep a docked on ALL information that led them to the rule which they are proposing. As a citizen you have a right to view that docket. If enough people pull together and the agency gets enough bad publicity, then they are likely to back down. Just be very careful. Agencies have spin doctors who are waiting to twist your words. Also, in cases where individuals have actually sued agencies the ALJ's tend to defer to the agencies (judicial deference). Again, be careful. Good luck.

I think its just ridiculous to think that there would EVER be a complete ban on reptiles but you are right with this law there isent much keeping them from banning other species. i dont personally own any colormorphs but i do own venomous and wouldent want to see a ban on them and i also hunt snakes in the wild. either way i feel that enless the species is proven to be endangered or if the numbers are dwindleing i dont think that the government has the right to tell me what pets i can and cant keep in the first place. can you beleave its against the law to own a hedgehog in pa? i understand the timber and northern copper laws but this new color moorph thing is outrageouse
