Hey guys,

I live in California. I would really love to acquire and raise an axolotl. Are there any possible options? I have heard many different stories about the legality of axolotls in CA. Any consensus?

Hi Calbears,

Before you go woah why would an aussie know. Well i have found some past threads about the same topic so i thought i shall just link them for you to look through.

In summary, it is illegal to own axolotls in california. However, i believe there are alternative caudates that can be kept.
