Any states where snakeheads are legal?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
yes the fact is true most sh's are legal in Md though you can't import them, and i see no way they could ever be legal there being that snakeheads don't readily reproduce in local waters from my understanding. in places like virginia and such i have heard of some being unaturally introduced and they flourished. just thought for the sake of it-- the species maculata and argus are illegal in MD.
 
Does anyone know why they r illegal? Is it because of them being released into native waters?

Yes. Because when they are entered into a closed body of water they take it over! Had a few problems here in Colorado as well.
