Oklahoma exotics laws?

Guest

I got my first college acceptance letter today! So regardless of what the other schools say at least I have a place at Oklahoma State University! This was my second choice college so I am very good with that Smile

I haven't looked to much into Oklahomas exotic laws yet. Does anyone know their laws on venomous or other exotics? And are there are any special venomous related things I should be aware of there? Such as breeders, research facilities etc.

Congratulations.
And your Question about the Laws.

I have already tried google as I stated in that specific thread. I am having trouble weeding through the thousands of other laws regarding completely unrelated subjects to find what I actually need.... Thats kind of why I asked about it here.
I will be going to get my bachelors degree in Zoology and then onto vet school for another 4 years or more. My eventual goal is to work as a vet for a zoo- specializing in herps. If that doesn't work out I would settle for being the local that can actually treat the exotic animals as well as normal cats and dogs.

So better we do the work, right Jessica?
I've googled and got what You could not find in 1 minute. See the link in another thread where You asked the same question.

A hint:
Forums do not like the same questions asked multiple. Forums also tend to have a self regulation, where users who often do this simply get just a "use google" answer after a while ;-)

Please don't get me wrong, just a hint, nothing personal.

I realize this, but I have used google and haven't found what I am looking for. If I had I obviously would not have asked here. I responded to what you sent me. I found that site. It doesn't really help with reptile specific details and permitting. I have found other sites along the same lines and I have found some with very specific details but no links to any official sites where I can see that the information is true the processes I need to go through to acquire permits if there are any.
I wasn't asking anyone to do the work for me, just asking if anyone would know offhand where I could find the info (since I am having trouble). For example... If someone asked me about Florida reptile laws I could probably answer most questions and link them to specific Florida Fish and wildlife pages without having to google anything.
Is it so wrong to ask for help from others?

(This thread WAS titled "First Acceptance letter". Apparently it's not anymore... I was not meaning to create repeat threads, this one was more about getting into a college, thats why I placed it in off topic...)

I changed the topic title from "acceptance letter" to "Oklahoma exotic laws".

If it were Austria, I'd try to ask the state government.
I in fact do not know if this is possible in the states but I guess it is.

That is probably what I will have to end up doing.... but the government is horrible and they are less likely to grant a permit or even to tell you the truth if they know what you are going to do with it. This is the case in Fl. at least... Hopefully other states are not as psychotic about it.

Congratulations, its always good to have a real chance at doing your dream job. I hope all works out for you and you get your job at a zoo.
