Animals can get ban without a state law...what you are referring to is the criminality of interstate commerce when an original state law was previously broken then the going across state line with an animal that is being possessed illegally becomes under the jurisdiction of federal government ..and in these cases it's prosecutible under lacey act..the point of that part of the lacey act is to insure that the violations in one state can still be prosecuted if the animal or person who committed the violation gos to another state....this law is totally separate from the invasive/injurious aspect of the lacey act.

That law you are talking about deals with mostly native animals...only in cases of exotics with state laws banning import or ownership does lacey act come into play...and its a whole different aspect and part of lacey act....
