I cant seem to find any references for laws regarding keeping Dynastes Granti in CA, so I am going to assume it is legal to keep this species of beetle in captivity here. If anyone knows otherwise, please inform me! Thank you!

If it's a US native beetle, it's fine. Since it is, it's fine.

It has to be a species that is native to and found in the state you live in. When it crosses state lines (like, when shipping) it becomes USDA jurisdiction and you would need a permit.
