I spoke to my step-father who is head of the state of Virginia's Game
and Wildlife, he does not think this will pass, it is just another
way for the government to have control of something else or gain $.
However, he did state to still call or write letters to the
representatives, congress to deny the bill. He also said they tried to
pull this bill along time ago and it was pushed aside. Oh, also include
in a letter or mention that we have the North American Ferrets ( which
are endangered), and our domesticated ferrets are also kin to weasels,
mink, polecats, skunks, badgers, sea and river otters. More so, the
family of Mustelidae have been around for a very long time.
Furthermore, the Mustelidae is probably the oldest extant family in
the Carnivora.
