22 Craziest Animal Laws
These crazy animal laws make us think lawmakers everywhere are itching to be comedians.
1. When in Alaska, do not ever shove a live moose out of an airplane midflight.
2. And you can shoot a bear, but don't wake him up from sleeping to take his photograph.
3. In the town of Juneau, AK, keep your flamingo out of barber shops.
4. In Arkansas, make sure all cows walking down Main Street are home before 1:00 PM on Sunday.
5. In Belvedere, CA, dogs are not allowed in public places without their masters on leashes (they may want to rethink the wording of this one).
6. Apparently dogs in Colorado can read, because the dog catcher must notify them of potential impounding by posting a notice on a tree for three days prior.
7. Hartford, CT dogs are not so fortunate, because it is illegal to educate them.
8. Cats in heat must be silenced in Columbus, GA, where they are not allowed to howl after 9 PM.
9. Same goes for dogs in Little Rock, AR, only they must cease barking after 6 PM.
10. Any fishing in Idaho must not be done while sitting on top of a camel.

Well, duh ; of course!
Doggone it, now I'm going to leave old Humpy at home next time I go fishing.
#6 reminds me of a sign I saw on a Post Office door. "No Dogs Allowed, Except Leader Dogs". So, who's going to read the sign?? Almost as sensible as putting Braille markers on the keys of drive through bank machines.
Well, you got your dead cat an' you got your dead dog;
On a moonlight night you got your dead toad-frog.
You got your dead skunk in the middle of the road, dead skunk in the middle of the road...
You have to wonder what brought on these laws...
When was the last time there was a flamingo in Alaska?
I'm sure that there are huge herds of camels in Idaho.
Hey, is there a law for this?
Nope, perfectly legal as long as it's the open season and the Moose has a driver's license and they've tagged their kill. Check this one Perrie.

"Support the Right to Arm Bears"
Not sure. The origins would certainly be interesting to investigate. I'd be willing to bet, though, that every one of them happened at least once, or nobody would have passed a law against them. Much like the notice that came in the package with Halloween Superman costumes that said, "NOTE: Wearing this costume does not enable the wearer to fly". Somebody had to have tried it, or they wouldn't have put in the notice.
Dear Friend Larry Hampton: Its about time someone did something about this scourge of camel mounted fishing!
I think this wasstarted by a Pieces working for scale.
Even if the law isn't followed, it was good it waspassed, just for the halibut.
Remember, it is easy to tune a piano, but difficult to tuna fish.
Itshigh time a legislature got off its bass and addressed this whale of an issue.
We cannot shrimp on justice.
Where is Salmon Rushdie when we most need him?
If they hump around fishing, I say filet them like we did Mrs. Paul.
This whole matter really steam my clams.

This one reminded me of the time we were at Cedar Point and saw a "goth" couple...she was leading him around the park by a leash, studded collar and all!
