I have a question.  Actually a couple.  If anyone can help me out, please
drop me a line.  My brother is making a journey to Alaska for a couple
weeks and has heard there are a lot of ferrets there, unaltered ones.  My
first question is, is this true?  If he happens to come across any he
plans to buy a couple for our breeding stock.  If he does, will there be
a big problem getting them from Alaska, across Canada, to North Dakota?
Thank you, any knowledge or opinions will be greatly appreciated.
 
[Canada should not be a problem, provided that you have vaccination
papers on entry.  I do not believe that any province bans them, though
some counties might, and a couple of cities do.  I suggest you contact
Customs and ask them for a contact with the proper authorities.  M of
Agriculture?  Health?  I forget.]
