Ok I THINK this is how this works. California You are allowed to collect 2 chuckwallas with a fishing license and have 2 in your possesion at any time and noe more. If you breed thm I thnk you have like 14 months to get rid of the babies as gifts but are not allowed to sell them or release them to the wild. I was told by a law enforcement officer in the southern district of CA that I was allowed to sell 2 chuckwllas to a CA resident but only 2. They have to remain with in the law and they have to keep the reciept. Technically all the CA laws apply to all other states if the chucks were collected in CA via the Lacey Act but it is usually never enforced. Arizona You are allowed to collect 4 chuckwallas with a small game hunting license and have 4 in your possesion and no more if the chucks are collected in AZ. Again if you breed them you have so long to dispose of them but of course not into the wild. I have heard you are able to have more chucks if they were purchased from another state. Like commercially collected chucks from NV but must have proof of such. I was told by AZGF that I was not allowed to sell any cb offspring of any chucks period to any AZ resident period! They were very specific about it and told me that if it were cost effective they would prosicute me under the Lacey act if I sold cb offspring of legally collected Arizona chuckwallas anywhere in the US. Real chuckwalla nazis! LOL. Utah I think illegal to collect or own period. May be able to keep if they were purchased from another state such as commercially collected ones from NV but not sure. Nevada Allowed to collect 2 with no license for personal use. Allowed to collect as many as you want with a commercial license and sell them where ever you want except maybe CA, AZ or UT. Really wierd NV law is that you cannot collect any native NV lizard for public display that you are charging admission for. So believe it or not a NV zoo contacted me for chuckwallas. What a bunch of crap if you ask me.
This is only for ater. No restrictions on hispidus state to state and of course federal restrictions on varius.
