Yeah, I noticed, I was annoyed, but according to the OK Dept. of Wildlife, they are going to remain on our lists of restricted wildlife. I can only hope other states do the same.
We have one at Wildcare (local wild animal rehab) that used to be a pet, but now is COMPLETELY neurotic because of it. He freaks out when placed on grass or dirt.
