I live in California, and I've wanted to own a Tanuki (Japanese raccoon dog) for some time now. They don't allow them to get shipped to the US, and there's only two in the country at zoos. Is there any way I could go about obtaining one? My best guess is that it's illegal and ill have to go through an exotic dealer, but that probably takes alot of time and will cost me way too much money. Any ideas?

Sometimes with posts like this one, I like to imagine the chain of events that led to the OP posting it. OP is browsing reddit at work, sees an article on front page about bitcoin, sees a mention of SR2 in the comments, spends 2 hours discovering and reading about DNMs, spends 2 more hours in awe on Agora, pauses and leans back in his chair, ponders...
Thinks, "I do not want to buy drugs, but I do want to own a Tanuki."
