In what states can I own a raccoon?
I'm curious to know, what states in the US allow for the ownership of raccoons as pets? Are there any specific laws or regulations that govern this? I've heard that some states have banned the keeping of raccoons due to concerns about their potential to spread diseases or cause damage. What are the legal implications if I were to acquire a raccoon without proper permission or in a state where they are not allowed? It would be helpful to understand the full scope of what's involved before making any decisions.
