I know in Massachusetts that you are allowed to capture and keep up to 2 (or is it 3) specimens of any non-listed herp. They may not be sold. I never read anything about releasing them. I would highly discourage releasing any animals in an location other than the one they were found. I also would not release animals that have been exposed to exotic herps or birds.

This is how disease can be introduced.
