Section 906-8.0 - Violations

8.1 If a permitted invasive animal species is found at-large without visible identification, and the Department is not able to contact the owner or caretaker, the Department or other State or federal agents may euthanize the animal immediately on-site.

8.2 If the Department has reason to believe that an invasive animal species is being kept by a person without an Invasive Animal Permit, the Department shall notify the person of such violation. The lack of money or resources needed to come into compliance with this regulation and 3 Del.C. Ch. 72 shall not be good cause for an extension of this regulation.

8.3 If an owner or caretaker fails to comply with this regulation, the State Veterinarian may order the seizure and euthanization of the permitted invasive animal species kept in violation of this regulation without further notice to the owner or caretaker.

8.4 If an individual or retail establishment is found selling or otherwise making available to members of the public an animal species determined to be invasive, the establishment will be found in violation of this regulation. The State Veterinarian may order the seizure and euthanization of any invasive animal species found on the premises of the establishment.
