It is lawful to take and possess rattlesnakesalive in this state with a hunting license. I referenced most of the laws thatpertain to what you are talking about.Restricted Live Wildlife pertains towildlife that cannot be possessed alive (without a license) or imported. Snakes taken with a hunting license can be possessed alive or dead percommission order 43.The live wildlife rule would restrictsomeone from bringing animals listed in that rule into the state. What thatmeans is that it is unlawful to bring rattlesnakes into the state.306. Importation,transportation, release or possession of live wildlifeNo person shall importor transport into the state or sell, trade or release within the state or have in his possession any live wildlife except asauthorized by the commission or as defined in title 3, chapter.


um i am slightly confused as to your question...however, talking back and forth with fish and game these laws here in this link http://usark.org/statelaws.php?state=AZ are valid as of July 1, 2010 basically to sum it up you cannot own any animal listed as dangerous wildlife with out a permit not even rattlesnakes. The laws have room for compromise which is good and it appears fish and game is willing to think about some of the suggestions as it would benefit everyone. Oh and yeah tetra are "Dangerous Animals" though an Asian water buffalo is not and they are ok to own as listed about with out a permit
