Sulcata Tortoise Size Regulations
 

I am just curious since there has been so much talk about the incident at the Daytona Show over turtles being sold under 4". Does anyone know what the laws are here in California? Is there a minimum size requirement to sell them?

4" is federal law.

Thanks

By the way, here is a page you can check out for more info on the how and why of the law: http://www.tortoise.org/general/4inch.html

I'm curious - I haven't read or heard anything about an incident at the Daytona show regarding turtles under 4 inches (in fact, I haven't heard anything about that show anywhere!). What happened?
