Bill: Regarding the ownership of wild, exotic and endangered animals
Details
Submitted by[?]: Republican Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 4181
Description[?]:
| Exotic and endangered animals can potentially be appropriate pets given that the government has adequate control over their sale and trade to minimize corruption and keep wild levels of these animals at a satisfactory level. Certain wild animals, such as specific species of bird such as the Beluz kingfisher are docile and can serve as domestic pets, although limits need to be set by the government to prevent potentially dangerous animals from becoming personal possessions. |
