Sugar glider info in MA?

[Artagiel]

Hi I live in Massachusetts. Are sugar gliders legal here and if so does anyone know where I can find soem good info on them. A girl i work with is very interested in them and as I rescue small animals she thought I would know but I don't but offered to find some stuff out for her lol. She has an african gray parrot also would they have problems with each other do you think?

Thank you in advance!!

They are actually illegal where you live. That could possibly be a problem...I mean, a lot of people in illegal states, like California, still get them, but just be careful..don't get caught!

I have four gliders and when my mother comes to town with her Cockatoo my gliders are terrfied. I don't think under the circurmstances is would be in her best interest or the gliders to have them.

Thanks I will let her know:) I guess she will have to flal in love with a more legal critter that can get along with existing in her home at the same time as her African gray.

ACK! You need a permit! They are legal but you need to get a permit!
