You can posess/catch 2 with a licence, not one, sorry if my wording confused you. The only legal ways I know of in ca. to get them are to catch them or to have them given to you.





I also do not know if we can legally buy natives from out of state dealers and have them shipped into ca. but I am guessing it is not legal.



As for out of staters, legally they should at least buy a weekend license to catch them in Ca. otherwise they are poaching- although patchnoses and other s.w. snakes are found in a few different states.

Each state has its own set of laws. Most require some sort of hunting or fishing permit to collect herps. Some of the other states might allow much more collecting than ca. as far as limits. I am really only familiar with ca. laws.
