These lists are a classic example of what is wrong with the Internet and legal materials. It would be nice if the compilers of these lists could actually cite to the statutes, ordinances or regulations.
I don't mean to kill the messenger, I know it came from Crazy Animal Laws but it would be nice if they cited the law.
