dogcatSo, if I want to hunt a lion in the Save, I can fill this out, wait for an approval, then go hunt?
Seems somewhat straightforward or am I missing something?

KathiAnton,
I believe that is for all animals that need an import permit.
Through the Director’s Order, the Service is redoubling its efforts to ensure that the world’s rarest species are protected from those who violate wildlife laws. The Service has the authority to deny future permit applications for activities such as sport-hunted trophy imports to anyone who has previously been convicted of or pled guilty to violations of wildlife laws. The order will ensure that this authority will be exercised to the fullest extent.
“Importing sport-hunted trophies and other wildlife or animal parts into the United States is a privilege, not a right; a privilege that violators of wildlife laws have demonstrated they do not deserve,” said Ashe. “We are going to strengthen our efforts to ensure those individuals – people who have acted illegally to deprive our children of their wildlife heritage – are not rewarded by receipt of wildlife permits in the future.”

That is no different than the old requirement; my leopard/ele permits had the same thing.

AnotherAZWriterStill a lot of unknowns...do you apply for a permit, wait until you get it, then book a hunt?
It might be a good idea for us to keep track of issues/denials.

lavacaThis is definitely different in the sense that you won't want to wait until the animal is in the salt to apply, which is what I've generally done with leopard and elephant in the past.

TMZI completed this app with the help of CF's pre-filled form and sent it off today to FWS. We'll see what, if anything, happens now. Thanks CF.

DuckearI wonder if this is similar to filling out a concealed carry permit in NYC or LA.
Sure you can apply, but......
