Were can u have wallabies in the united states?

Question

does any one no were u can have a wallabie in America and how much the permits are

Answer 1

you cant have them,

they are a protected native Australian animal so it is not permitted to keep them as pets

Answer 2

Unfortunately, Tuppen (above) you can buy practically any animal in the US for pets. Much to my horror I found out recently that there is a massive market in our gliders over there. They are bred over there purely for the pet market. Most don't last too long.

So, as to this question, unfortunately there probably are wallabies for sale somewhere in US. Obviously the asker is a kid, and I hope there is a responsible adult somewhere to talk her out of it.

Answer 3

Please Nila, even if you manage to find one, don't get it. They are protected animals and here in Australia we're not allowed to keep them as pets. They need very special care, particularly when young and a pet one would almost certainly die.
