To find out about the legality of owning a fennec fox as a pet in New Jersey, I recommend you consult with the following resources:
* New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP): They are the primary authority on wildlife regulations and permits.
* New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife: They manage wildlife and can provide information on exotic animal ownership.
* Local Animal Control: Check with your local municipality for specific ordinances regarding exotic pet ownership.
* A qualified attorney: This is the best option to get accurate and legally sound advice.
Keep in mind that even if owning a fennec fox is technically legal in New Jersey, it may be subject to specific permits, licenses, and housing requirements.
