The California Fish and Game Commission is currently considering a ban on importation and possession of non-native frogs and turtles in California. Several anti pet trade groups will be pushing their agenda at the Commission meeting this week in Sacramento. I was told by an internal source within Fish and Game that there is a likely hood that this ban may become law. I’m not a frog or turtle person, but I wanted to pass this information along to folks that are. This issue is going to be discussed at the California Fish and Game Commission meeting on May 13, 2009 (Wednesday) in Sacramento. I urge people to attend or right letters of opposition.
