Rotate Legal Indiana Animals Forms For Free

(a) A permit is required under this rule for the following Class II wild animals: (1) Beaver (Castor canadensis). (2) Coyote (Castor latrans). (3) Gray fox (Urocyon cinereoargenteus). (4) Red fox (Vulpes fulva).

Some states in which owning raccoons is forbidden by law include Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland and Massachusetts. This is just a partial list, though. Individuals who owned a pet raccoon when laws banning their ownership were enacted may be allowed to maintain ownership.

Some exotic pets that can be owned in Indiana include: squirrels, servals, venomous snakes, wolves, skunks, arctic foxes, deer, monkeys, dwarf caimans and capybaras.

Exemptions: Landowners or lessees of farmland who farm that land and are residents of Indiana are not required to obtain a permit while hunting, fishing, or trapping on the land they own or lease. A license is also NOT required for the landowner's or lessee's spouse or children living with them.

The little nocturnal animal is common and widespread in Indiana and the current laws in the state allow the possession of pet raccoons along with the possession of beavers, foxes, or skunks, but a wild animal possession permit is required.

Class I and II Wild Animals: Submit the signed, completed application form within five (5) days of taking possession of the animal with the payment of $20 (made payable to Indiana DNR). Class III Wild Animals: Submit the signed, completed application form before taking possession of the animal with the payment of $20.
