Chris, Louisiana looks good. However, DWF just posts its own regulations. You may not buy or sell box turtles in Louisiana and you may not buy or sell alligator snappers under 15 inches. Also, Act 1221 of 2003 requires that DWF shall issue permits for constrictors over 12 feet and venomous snakes. The parameters for this regulation are being worked on this month with the Louisiana Gulf Coast Herpetological Society working through the Louisiana Reptile & Amphibian Task Force, which is a DWF Board.
Thomas Eimermacher, the LGCHS VP, is the architect for the venomous regulations in the state of Louisiana. We will notify you when the regs are approved & adopted. Keep up the good work.
