HB 2675: Wild animals/private owners
Preventing private ownership of dangerous wild animals.
Summary
- Declares an intent of the state of Washington to protect the public against the health and safety risks that dangerous wild animals pose to the community and to protect the welfare of individual animals held in private possession. By their very nature, these animals are wild and inherently dangerous and, as such, do not adjust well to a captive environment.
