IMPORTANT: Terms and Conditions of Wildlife Pet Permits -- Permits are issued upon the provision that said wildlife be kept in a
safe, sanitary and humane manner. All wildlife pets shall be kept under strict supervision by the permittee or safely caged at all times.

Conservation Commission (FWC) officers and submitted for rabies testing. Consideration must be given to the disposition of the above
animal(s) should I no longer want it or am unable to provide proper care. I understand that 379.231, F.S. and 68-5.001 Florida
Administrative Code, prohibits the release of any non-native animal. Furthermore, that 68A-6.0021, F.A.C., prohibits the acquisition or
sale or transfer of wildlife to or from anyone not authorized to posses such wildlife.
I hereby agree to abide by all regulations of the FWC regarding the keeping of wildlife pets.
