hehe yeah I hope I and you can get one one day too. lol! I seriosuly would consider getting one illegally someday. (shhh) I mean they are legal in Idaho & Oregon, I can just get one there, and go to a vet there. Not like the skunk police are gonna be knocking on my door. No one will even know I have one, they dont make noise, I wont let it outside. And I know many people own them illegally. I read in an article that theres people in Canada owning them illegally without even realizing it. hah! (Or I could just move to Oregon lol) Cause damn. I read a few articles about the reasons why they are illegal in many states and they are just ridiculous reasons. Its all about rabies. GRR. THEY ARENT BORN WITH RABIES PEOPLE! So moronic. Theres a huge difference between the domestic pet skunks and wild ones! Its like the same issues people were having with ferrets before they were legal. And the other thing is about how theres no "official" rabies shot for skunks, but I read that people just use the ferret rabies shot and that works, AND its like, well duh, if they were legal maybe there would be a shot! growl. BAH. Its just silly. But anyhoo.. I hope they become legal nationwide soon. Heres the site I was reading all this at: http://www.skunksaspets.com/published.htm
