Butterfly and Moth permit question

[spyderlady]

Does anyone know if you have to have a permit to purchase species of butterflies and moths native to the U.S. from butterfly farms overseas?

 

[What]

Yes. Importing any living animals/organisms into the USA, originally native or not, requires permits.
