Can I sell pyros to some one in AZ
 

I was wondering if I could sell pyros "nonlocality " from UT to some one in AZ . What about AZ locality ones?

thanks for the help

Jason

I know I could not sell them when we were at a show in Tempe nor our Cal kings but I am not sure about shipping them over. I would have to say no but not too sure.

Thanks for the help . I was not sure . I have decided against sending them to AZ

This is an amazing source
 

we use this all the time to see what is allowed to be owned in each state and what need permits to own, what is endangered and protected. We had one instance one guy wanted a sertain reptile and when we looked it up it stated that he had to apply for a state permit to own these. It states for Arizone what the native reptiles are and such but it does not go into the details of being able to bring them across shipped or transported. Transported by car( I am asuming shipped would fall under the same catagory) I know can not be done we are in california and we went for a show and I sell them out here as well as my Cal kings but could not take them there. The book for reference is:

A Field Guide to reptiles and the Law
By John P. Levell
the distributers # is 612-470-5013 and are located in MN if you can not find or order it in a book store give them a call. Hope this helps.

Thanks again for all the help

Take care

Why cant you sell Calkings in Az? Im really interested in hearing this, becuase I know for a fact you can. Every shop has them I my self sell them along with most venders at shows sell them. Game and Fish have no regs over Calkings.

But you are right Pyros are not to be sold here or shipped here.

Take care

I just relized how old these posts were... OOPS!!!
