Importing rays into the us?

[Tom]

Does anyone have experience with importing rays from South America?
There is a chance that I will be going down to Brazil to stay with family this summer and it is going to be really tempting to bring something back with me

Do I need a permit? Liscense? It would only be a few rays.
Thanks for the help guys

this will almost certainly not be possible for you. Rays are 'quota' animals and only Brazilians can get export licenses for them and only a few of them.

That sucks -_- too bad I couldn't bring a few back with me

I have no idea on the specifics but it'd be very difficult.

The only chance would be having an exporter there to process the paperwork for you. That is, if you can find them and if they'll be willing to.
