Endangered or Threatened Marine Animals

Summary

The bill would make it illegal to capture or transport any marine species listed as endangered or threatened from Florida’s state waters for educational or exhibition purposes. It also stops the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission from issuing licenses that would allow such activities, while still permitting rescue, rehabilitation, or scientific research under proper permits. Violations would be treated as Level Four offenses.
