Thanks for the information Rob. That is excellent! I am just a single hobbyist and have been asked by the local public elementary school to do this.

There may very well be different rules amongst the various states to decide if venomous may be brought into the public schools for educational purposes. As well as different rules amongst the school districts as well as the individual schools. Basically a federal, state, and local type of jurisdiction.

Based on my conversation with the principal and teachers I am not bringing any of my crotes. Perhaps it would be different if I was accredited and associated (not to mention insured/bonded) with a local zoo or comp. but truth be told I am not sure.

I very much appreciate the input and information you have offered
and it is something I will have to look into.

Thanks,
Greg
