Animal Welfare; Policy on Training and Handling of Potentially Dangerous Animals : 9 CFR Parts 2 and 3


Author:
United States, Department of Agriculture, and Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
Year:
2004
Abstract:
On February 18, 2000, we published a draft policy statement regarding the training and handling of potentially dangerous animals in the Federal Register in order to seek public comment on the policy statement prior to its implementation. The draft policy statement was developed to provide guidance to exhibitors and other regulated entities on how to comply with the regulations regarding training and handling of potentially dangerous animals (e.g., lions, tigers, bears, and elephants). This is to notify the public that we will not be publishing or implementing a final policy statement on these issues
