Yeah, that makes sense. I know in some cases states outright ban the sale of it as a native species (like Vermont apparently), but even now I'm still not sure if they can be sold in/to NY. I've been wanting to go with collecting tadpoles from the rescues from my backyard again this year, but I'm now worried about bacteria, parasites, B.d, etc etc. I'm also not sure, but I think in order to collect frogs in NY you actually need a small game license (it stated this under "Hunting" on the D.E.C. website, but I'm assuming capturing falls under "hunting by hand"). Anywho, if you happen to ask, and they happen to have them, then awesome, I know where I can look if I can decide to purchase them instead of capture, and if not, no worries. Thanks for the help.
