dorcus7913 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 I want to breed either rhino or stag beetle in NYC for portrait shooting and breeding. Well I can not just buy beetles secretly and then use them in real life so I'm looking for the site or place to talk about this. Does anyone know where should I talk about permits?

Beetle-Experience Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 It all depends on what you are trying to do, but you would need USDA permits for sure, then likely FWS permits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsectaJaeger888 Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I did research on the USDA requirements for exotic insect permits and you would have to know someone on the inside to get a permit, aside from the necessary payments and such it is technically legal to own exotic beetle privately with a valid permit. . .however the monthly cost and annual renewal fees are no laughing matter and for many is not worth it. It is illegal to own beetle for commercial sale or even commercial purposes. Aside from that getting the permit itself requires a level 2 clearance status.

InsectaJaeger888 Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 And that just to get an importing of exotic insects permit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
