Is it legal to have a pet squirrel in Missouri?

My dad was cutting down dead trees for firewood and a little squirrel was left by his momma :( He is about 4-5 weeks old just getting ready to open his eyes. He is doing great with us, I just don't want to be turned in for doing something illegal! I can't find anywhere online that tells me if it, is or isn't legal IN missouri. Thanks for the help!!Is it legal to have a pet squirrel in Missouri?
THAT IS NOT TURE!!!!! People tried to tell me that in florida and i went online to fwc(florida wildlife conservation) and asked them and it is perfectly legal here, i don't know about there, but all they have is cage size requierments. I have two and i was going to see if i needed a lisence and i don't . i will look and try to find that info. for you! I'll be back!!





where exactlly do you live, with zip code please?????

It is illegal to be in possession of wildlife in all states unless you are a licensed wildlife rehabber. please find a wildlife rehabber in your area to care for the squirrel. websites below. your heart is definitely in the right place. kudos to you for helping the baby.
