I hope I'm not being a thorn in anyone's side here. I just wanted to share my findings. I did email a breeder here in Texas about the laws. I don't want to share the name because I do not have their permission to do so, nor did I ask. But they told me that it is not required at a state level to have a permit for a Savannah in Texas. Unless, it is required at a local (county) level. Only a Serval is required to have a permit.
Patti, I will email him again and request that info/link.

I noted in my email to him that I am looking to purchase an f2, f3, or f4. He stated they do not consider them DWA, Savannah's in general. On the other hand, a Serval IS considered a DWA. And that is dated less than 24 hrs ago. So per his email, yes, I am fine on the local level. And per a reliable breeder in the state of Texas, I am ok at the state level. I will contact the state to verify that information, to be on the safe side.
Idaho law is here: http://adminrules.idaho.gov/rules/current/02/0427.pdf
You need to look specifically at 010. 04 Definitions: which include hybrids of deleterious animals, and 404.09 Deleterious Exotic Animals - Mammals - Felidae: which lists the serval as a deleterious animal
