Sec. 670.31  Specific issuance criteria for imports.





    Subject to compliance with other applicable law, any person who 

takes a native mammal, bird, or plant under a permit issued under the 

regulations in this part may import it into the United States unless the 

Director finds that the importation would not further the purpose for 

which it was taken. If the importation is for a purpose other than that 

for which the native mammal, bird, or plant was taken, the Director may 

permit importation upon a finding that importation would be consistent 

with the purposes of the Act, the regulations in this part, or the 

permit under which they were taken.
