Are hedgehogs legal in Florida?

My kids want a pet hedgehog. I’ve finally given in and agreed, but I’m not sure if it’s allowed in my state. Are hedgehogs legal in Florida?

Good (or bad?) news! Hedgehogs are legal in
Florida
. While some states don’t permit hedgehogs to be kept as pets, Florida doesn’t even require a permit for a pet hedgehog.
So you can let your kids know you’ll be bringing home a spiny new addition to the house!
Keeping any pet is expensive, though. Why not make up for the cost of a pet hedgehog by saving $800+ per year on
car insurance
?
