"Several speakers suggested current owners of animals that would be banned should able to legally keep them with a grandfather clause, but Priscilla Feral, president of Friends of Animals in Darien, disagreed. She called on the DEP to evaluate the living conditions of some of these animals before they are given permission to keep them."

Must be the only sensible person in CT. If anyone in CT happens to have a wallabie or warthog... they had better have some kind of permit. I mean wth get a potbelly or better yet, a dog.
I'd be interested in finding out how many of these animals have even DECENT homes/habitats.

This isn't really a win-win. Herps were saved yes, but should the public have access to all of these exotic animals?
