Which the Lacey Act was being used for to prohibit/ban the interstate travel/sell of the following species of Constrictors - Burmese Pythons, Reticulated Pythons, African Rock Pythons, and Anacondas.
The lifting of the interstate travel & sell of these large constrictors between the states(where legal) resumed on May 29, 2017.
So basically at this time - it is perfectly legal to ship Brumese Pythons across state lines, once again. The only exceptions at this time is - if the owning of Burmese Pythons is restricted or prohibited(by state or local laws) in your state. Which they are not in state I live in.

Thank you. I did not hear about this. Nice to know. Unfortunately my state still bans them, NY. Always learning something new.
