(US) Let's Make Beetles Legal!

[FlamingSwampert]

Alright guys, the time has come. I will be contacting the necessary government agencies (likely starting with APHIS) and requesting the deregulation of foreign beetles in the US, and I think you all should do the same.

What are the agencies involved in beetle importation and regulation that I should contact?

I will be posting updates, responses, etc in this thread and will keep everyone posted.

Thanks everyone. Let's win this!

Unfortunately, it will never happen.

Unfortunately, it will never happen. 

I understand your pessimism, but there's no reason it couldn't happen with enough effort.

There are a bunch of neat native species, if those were widely kept it would make a difference.

I wish you the best! Those permits are so annoying, since the most popular species aren't even harmful to the environment.

It would be so useful since UK sellers have the Dorcus Titanus Palawanicus adult males at 25 USD, while US sellers have it at 150 USD!
