[QUOTE="PhilinYuma, post: 147281, member: 2509"] And of course, I made no such implication either! :D I was merely saying how the authorities might know. One of my sons is a U.S. federal agent who rarely goes after "hardened criminals", just those who are breaking the law, but he is in Customs Enforcement. Usually, as happened with your informant, they just let the mantids die, or gas them and return the package to the sender, but they can prosecute if they want to. Incidentally, another way to draw Canadian wildlife officials' attention to your hobby would be to write and ask them if it is O.K. to keep Egyptian mantids, which you have decided are legal. Great if you are right, tough luck if you are wrong! [/QUOTE]
