animal rescues

Question
Hello Laurie I am interested in information on how to start a endangered animal rescue here in maine, but I am not sure what the state of maine laws are. I love animals and have lots of spare time. I would like to do some good.

Answer
Hi.  Thanks for your question.  I would start with the department of agriculture in your state and ask them about the laws in your state.  I have provided a link below.  They should be able to help you from there.  Sugar gliders are not "endangered animals" so I don't know about the specifics.  I would start at the state level and work to the federal level if necessary.
