I know someone who brought in a skunk from Massachusetts who says there is a certain exotic animal clause, and the owner has to agree to never sell or give away the animal. This may not apply to ferrets; I've been given the idea that they take away and destroy ferrets first, and ask questions second. I didn't get ferrets until I moved out of California, and I will not take them into California when I go back to visit because I fear they will be taken away. And, you people who aren't sure, ferrets cannot reestablish in the wild. There are no wild European ferrets left on the face of the Earth, and as was being discussed before on rec.pets, if you knew the breeding conditions for ferrets, you would understand why. Ferrets have kind of a bad reputation, which is due to some owners who do not train them correctly, and the ferrets claw the carpet or nip the baby as a result. Well, the same thing happens with dogs, all the time. Ferrets are amazing little animals! m i n s q
