Update from US Fish & Wildlife

[admin]

I received this e-mail yesterday:

Greetings Clark,

Recently, I was perusing your website, and I noticed that some of the data you have on your US Fish and Wildlife Page is a tad out of date.

I hope you don't mind, but I've taken the liberty of attaching the Fee chart that includes 2011 (what's left of it) and 2012:

(See attached file: Fee Schedule 2009-2012.pdf)

You can also find more info here:

And here:

If you or the members of your forum have any questions about this or any other import/export issue, please drop me an email, or feel free to call at the number and times below.

Best Regards,

Wait a minute, are you telling me we got unsolicited help from USFWS? That would be a first! But thank you Mr. Herndon for taking the time and being proactive!

What a minefield! I can't see anything on there regarding importation of dead insects.
