Currently all larger boids (anything over a redtail boa) such as burms, rectics, andicondas, etc. are ILLEGAL to keep in the 5 boros. It is also illegal to keep any hot no matter what, unless you are the BRONX Zoo... they are trying to get rid of them all together for awhile, I put a post up awhile back so NYers could right our representatives. I have written numerous letters and the NY herp society is continually working on changing the laws. The first time they wrote the law they made a mistake and made ALL snakes illegal, but it has since been re-worded and corrected. This does not put us out of harms way... and it is good to see you have an intrest in protecting our rights. Just remember too keep a cool head... no threatining or abusive letters ever help our situation.
(edited to add) - all crocodillians and poison dart frogs
