Are Black-throated Monitor Lizards legal in New jersey?

As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, Black-throated Monitor Lizards (Varanus albigularis) are classified as exotic species in New Jersey, and their ownership may be subject to regulations. Generally, New Jersey has restrictions on the ownership of certain reptiles and exotic animals. It is essential to check the latest state regulations or consult with local wildlife authorities to ensure compliance before acquiring one.
