excal88 Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Hey guys so I was digging around on the legality of Importing stag beetles into California and from the California food and agricultural website I found a pdf that lists all species of insects in which permits are not required to import or ship in. Granted it's an older pdf but when I searched the site it's the only list that pops up. Good news! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel J. R. Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I don't know much about CA's laws but from what I understand if it's native then it should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acro Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Look for a thread called "Importing beetles in CA" on this website, and read the last post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excal88 Posted May 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Ah I see Acro. Didn't see that post since it was a while ago and didn't think to look in the "Other' discussion subforum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beetle-Experience Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 My post from other thread: Yes, I checked with the USDA on this and they were aware of the PDF in question and said it was misleading. It is only legal to import or ship Lucanidae into CA (from any country or state!) if you have a USDA or FWS permit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
