   At least for Californians, the Sierra Club is against making it legal to own a pet ferret. The Californians for Ferret Legalization has an interesting response to the Sierra Club position.
I don't know why any state would outlaw ferrets. Of course I don't know much about ferrets, except that they are very cute. Do they carry any specific type of disease? If it is a health issue, then perhaps someone should not be allowed to have them, but personally I like them and think everyone who wants one (provided they can give proper care), should have one.
