Are sugar gliders legal here?


"Is a sugar glider even legal where I live?" That is probably the most important question you should have before getting a sugar glider! Obviously before you even consider getting a sugar glider you should look up the laws in your area. In some parts of the world sugar gliders are illegal and considered "exotic pets" and will not even be allowed to own even with an exotic animals license. Here are some laws in different places going alphebetically:

Alabama: Legal
 Alaska: Illegal
 Arizona: Legal According to Bill Van Pelt, Nongame Bird and Mammal Program Manager
 Arkansas: Legal
 Colorado: Legal
  Flordia: Legal
  Georgia: Illegal unless you have valid documentation that the animal originated from a source inspected and
