Any animal descended from stock that was acquired in violation of any foreign law is in violation of US law, no matter what any US agency says or does (short of Congressional amendment of the act, or a court finding the act or a relevant provision of it in conflict with some superseding principle or legislation). Anything else is just more laundering -- "legal" in practical terms only.
"There are plenty of people who keep things off of sites like this" -- that's a good thing. What people do in dark alleys is going to continue no matter what, but normalizing the free and open support of smuggling because of narrow and short sighted self-interest isn't laudable. This isn't directed toward any one person in particular, but is a general statement.
