westerns you must have a protected species permit from the DNR

below is a link to the dangerous animals act which covers venomous, and from the way its written crocs and large snakes

http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/ilcs3.asp?ActID=1944&ChapAct=720 ILCS 585/&ChapterID=53&ChapterName=CRIMINAL OFFENSES&ActName=Illinois Dangerous Animals Act



heres a link to all the info youll need about protected/threatened species

http://dnr.state.il.us/espb/



also you should know IL automatically adopts Federal threatened list , in other words if its on the federal list, say a Tiger and you bring it to IL you must have a permit from IL to possess the tiger even though its not native



IL is big on compliance if I was you Id contact the DNR and start working on getting your permits prior to moving here, if your caught in the state with them and dont have the proper paperwork youll get in trouble, best of luck to you.
