common practice to loan animals amonst zoo's and avoid paper work. (I used to do this while I WAS at the Cleveland Zoo) I currently hold USDI permits for my crocodiles and if any are sent across state lines on a loan I add a note stating the animal is on loan (Gifts, Donations, loans do not require permits, buying and selling across state lines do) for more information look up "www.fws.gov" under permits.

: This basically a question...As I read the regs for the Eastern Indigo, it seems to me that interstate commerce for breeding purposes is NOT required to have all the attendant paper work as is required for actually SELLING an animal across state lines...Is this a correct interpretation?? Has anyone in the group had experience doing this?? I have a gorgeous 7 ft male who will be inactive this year..His female, I've decided, is not mature enough...I'd entertain the idea of using him as a stud service animal if anyone was interested..I just think that keeping the gene pool diverse is the right thing to do with these guys...I'm not even thinking about charging anyone...I know it might seem risky to transport an animal just for breeding purposes, but if it helps out the species, I'd do it...Let me know your thoughts and experiences, if anyone has done this before...Carl
