163.11 IMPORTED ANIMALS.
A person shall not move an animal into this state, except to a
public livestock market where federal inspection of livestock is
maintained, for work, breeding, or dairy purposes, unless such animal
has been examined and found free from all infectious or contagious
diseases.
No person shall bring in any manner into this state any cattle for
dairy or breeding purposes unless such cattle have been tested within
thirty days prior to date of importation by the agglutination test
for contagious abortion or abortion disease, and shown to be free
from such disease.
Animals for feeding purposes, however, may be brought into the
state without inspection, under such regulations as the department
may prescribe except that this sentence shall not apply to swine. Section History: Early Form
