[QUOTE="CosbyArt, post: 292706, member: 8168"] Okay I see it now. ;) I'm not a lawyer or involved in anything at the state/federal level, I'm merely a mantid hobbyist myself. In regards to the Oregon legal codes you posted none of those apply to mantids so has no concern to your hobby at the state level. As #1 is cats, #2 monkeys, #3 wolfs, #4 bears, #5 reptiles - crocodiles in particular. Not sure if you pointing out there are no laws in your state about mantids or what there. :) In regards to mantids in general (at the federal level) there are no laws written either. There are regulations, and in particular importing which is covered by other federal laws, but to the mantid hobby itself it there is little to no concern. If you notice there are many sites online selling mantids, and those would be the easiest to target from a legal standpoint and have shutdown (and would be the first target as they actively supply mantids to individuals) - so in that regard I wouldn't worry as it is a 20+ year debate and not worth worrying about. Enjoy your mantids. :D [/QUOTE]
