Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to wild or exotic animals
AI Summary
This bill amends the environmental conservation law to define "wild animal" as indigenous, non-domesticated animals native to the country in which they live, and "exotic animal" as a wild animal with an origin of a different continent. It adds certain wild or exotic animals, such as non-human primates, felidae, canidae, and various reptile and mammal species, to the list of non-companion animals. The bill also provides a license process for certain owners of wild or exotic animals who possessed them at the time the law takes effect, as long as they meet certain criteria.
