scorpion venom business in India is legal or not
04-Jul-2024 (In Criminal Law)
Yes, but with major caveats. It's not like you can just go out and start collecting scorpions in your backyard. The government classifies many scorpion species under wildlife protection laws, so:
-
You'll need permits and licenses from the Wildlife Department and possibly drug regulatory authorities.
-
You'll also need to follow strict ethical and environmental guidelines, especially around extraction methods and animal welfare.
-
Exporting venom? That's a whole other legal jungle involving international trade laws and CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) compliance.
