Florida

The State of Florida regulates ownership of wildlife. Florida classifies wildlife into three sections: I, II and III. A list of the different classifications can be viewed on page 15 at link 1. An application for a permit can be obtained at link 2. Savannah cats are not regulated by the state (please see copy of e-mail below links).
