    Can anyone link me to where the law is actually written down?
    I'm trying to find it to show someone, but I can't seem to find it!

    I found it for VA, but I need either the federal, or Idaho law that states it.

    Thanks!

    That would be 16 CFR Part 301.

    It is legal to sell cat/ dog hides in the USA. It is illegal to import garments with Cat/dog fur composition. Blue Sky, Steve

    My comment wasn't aimed at you. This site is here for asking questions. And it's a taxidermy site and we deal with animals of all kinds.
    "Common sense" would tell us that ;)

    That morons comment about commen sense bugs the chit out of me, I love animals just about as much as anyone else but the fact of the matter is they are still animals so if I find a dead cat along the road hell I may just put it to use, I have done that once and I didn't even own the finished product for 1 day and someone bought it for $50.00 I probably could have gotten $100 for what I did but the thing is that it is boneheads like this that put an animal in a human place.JMHO

    There is just something wrong with selling, tanning, mounting, etc domestic dog and cat skins. Each to their own, but I think it is a bit on the odd side. Whats next, the mother in laws back hide?

    I am really not sure how to take this, it seems like a smart azz respose to me, but I could be wrong. My point is , is that they are animals not people, I am not about to start shooting peoples pets so that I can make a buck, but I don't see or understand why tanning and or mounting there hides is something that should be illeagle. ANIMALS ARE NOT PEOPLE OR HUMAN.

    But people are animals.

    Not that I disagree. Just making a point.
    I know in ancient Japan when a Yakuza member betrayed the gang, they would sometimes skin them, and keep the skin. Each member would be required to have a full body tattoo, minus the head, hands, feet, and a V-neck shape.
    They would hang the skins up... probably as a warning. :p

    When animals have enough sense to stay out of the road then I will classify them with humans.
