Is it not the case they are illigal in the states as the APH is in many of the states and require a licence, the APH that is.

But if you read that thread it states that some of the species are dangerous......their bites and quills that detatch like a porcupines...........so i can see why they would be illegal............they are classed as dangerous animals

it also says that they dont do well in captivity and starve themselves

Depends on the animal I suppose as I have two breeder friends in Germany who keep the lesser hedgehog tenrec and they do fine. I know they have said the female is very defensive of the young and must be left alone for the first week or else babies are gone and thats that but they have told me these guys are fine for captive pets and friendly. Yeah I wouldn't like to mess with a pine or anything like it either and if they are like that then they should be on DWAL or something to that affect.
