FlamingSwampert Posted April 19, 2023 Report Posted April 19, 2023 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! Quote

Dynastes Posted December 6, 2023 Report Posted December 6, 2023 There are a bunch of neat native species, if those were widely kept it would make a difference. Quote

Agent8 Posted May 3, 2024 Report Posted May 3, 2024 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! Quote
