My thanks to those who've e-mailed me so far with info on ferret legality throughout the U.S. To reiterate -- and as a reminder -- I'm trying to compile a comprehensive list of FFZs (Ferret Free Zones) as well as places that require licensing for ferret ownership. I've got the major places -- I am looking for those that aren't as well known. The object is to have a more complete list available for those who ask. Please e-mail me at [log in to unmask] or on CompuServe at 71257,3153 to add to the list. Here's what I've got so far: --------------------- Ferrets are currently known to be banned or illegal in: * California * Massachusetts * Michigan * Hawaii * New York City, NY -- despite * Washington, DC * St. Paul, Minn. * Salt Lake City, Utah * Fort Bragg, NC On the not-sure-if-this-is-correct-could-someone-confirm list: * various cities in Texas -- which ones? * an unnamed county in Ohio -- anybody know? * Baltimore, Md.? * other military bases? Places where legal action or disinformation campaigns concerning ferrets is taking place: * New Hampshire * Cobb County, Georgia * Kansas Places where legal action recently took place: * Pennsylvania Places where permits or licenses are required in order to own ferrets: * New York State * New Jersey * Rhode Island --------------------- Please add to this list! Rather than post to the FML, please e-mail me, and I'll compile and post the summary.
