Well I just moved from Vancouver to kelowna, I've seen S. Lineola at pet stores in both van and kelowna. I've never. Heard this law, so I think you've got fake info.
Lol, I agree... I was in coquitlam and my local petstore said that s. Lineolas need 100 gal enclosures! I'm in kelowna now but was in van! I only trust petland there.hey bro, I'm from vancouver also. Pet store owners here don't know anything. Which petstores have you been to?
Good finding but not sure if is true tho ... My understanding U can keep them but not sell lol ... I tried to Promote my mantis to a local pet shop once .. he say u can give me some mantis for display but I can't sell it for you lol ... I wish i can sell them to get some cost back feeder insect or containers.... No luck with any store ... But i heard Big Al's have Mantis but the one is Mississauga don't carry any .Ontarian here. Just spent all of last night researching the legality of importing mantids. Theres actually conflict of whether they require a permit or not on the CFIA website so I ended up calling the National Import Service Center. They told me that all species of mantid are considered biological control agents and wouldn't need a permit to import. and the AIRS form (http://airs-sari.ins...ons.aspx?lang=1) said the same.
Oh so importing mantis in general? Because there is no reason to import Chinese mantids lol. But yeah I get the permit for importing mantidsYou dont need a permit to have but you need a permit to import them, which is what my permit is for.
