加利福尼亚居民兼雪貂倡导者帕特·赖特已向萨克拉门托县高等法院提交强制令,要求州野生动物机构响应2025-003号请愿,解除加州对家养雪貂的禁令。
Pat Wright, a California resident and ferret advocate, has filed a writ of mandate in Sacramento County Superior Court against state wildlife agencies, demanding they act on Petition 2025-003 to lift California’s ban on domestic ferrets.
尽管在48个州合法, 但该禁令自1933年起实施,1988年重新确认为非家养动物.

The Fish and Game Commission accepted the petition in June 2025 and referred it to the Department of Fish and Wildlife, but no formal response has been issued.
赖特是 LegalizeFerrets.org 的创始人,他表示各机构未提供记录,并以类似请愿处理较慢为由,寻求法院命令以强制及时审查。
Wright, who founded LegalizeFerrets.org, says the agencies have not provided records and cites slower processing of similar petitions, seeking a court order to compel timely review.
