Sugar Gliders- Find place that ships to California (los angeles)?

Question

I really want to get a sugar glider but I'm having a hard time finding a place that can ship and has affordable prices. I have already gone to pretty much every sugar glider website made so pleaseee help!!! Also if you have a sugar glider that you want to sell contact me!!!!

Answer 1

Sugar gliders are illegal in California. Any GOOD breeder will refuse to sell them to you since you live there, because if they were to find them, then they could take it and euthanize them. Just because they were in the state.

Plus, just shipping any kind of animal can easily be over $300.

But don't endanger an innocent animal's life because you want one for your own entertainment.

If you were to have sugar gliders, you'd need to keep them a secret from all of your friends because if word slips, it can travel fast, and eventually, the wrong person could hear about it and report it. The result? You losing your pet unless you can get it out of there within 24 or 48 hours.

So either you'd need to rehome them or have them taken away and put to sleep.

Answer 2

I think that sugar Gliders are illegal in Califonia, so you might want to check into that. I know that Ferrets and Quaker parrots are.

Answer 3

Sugar gliders are deemed as illegal to prevent the depletion of wild populations and to provide for animal welfare are termed "welfare animals". Meaning, they are illegal to the public and only zoos and related organizations are allowed to keep them with a license.

I'm sorry, but you're not going to find anyone who is going to ship you a sugar glider. The next best thing to do would be to volunteer at a local zoo or education organization that has them.
