Default Re: Hard to get livestock

US Fish and Wildlife shut down Tonga imports a week or so ago, and Hawaii still has the legislation in the works.

Countries that are not CITES members have to supply scientific studies/management plans to CITES in order to export to them(CITES members), Tonga didnt file so US stopped thier imports.

Link to thread on RB talking about it, http://www.reefbuilders.com/forums/r...a-no-more.html my post there has a link to a thread where Walt Smith posted what the regulations involved are.
