Gary, how do you kill a dog or cat "by the use of any high-altitude decompression
chamber?"

I don't know what prompted that law to come about but it is in our current book for 2006.

If it stays slow tonight I’ll park the car and see if there is one in there for humans as well. :huh:

Here is a weird one I came across last night looking up something else.

What is also interesting is that the statute says ".....................No person, peace
officer, officer of a humane society, or officer of a pound, or any public
agency................"

So the last 4 entities are not persons? !!!!!!!!!!!
 
I thought that was a standard method of euthanasia. They put the animals it a chamber and pump the air out. When I was a kid in Michigan 25 years ago I heard that was one of the methods used by the humane society. And they weren't done one at a time.

I didn't like it then, nor now. And I'm not surprised the practice is explicitly banned.

Things like this always make me ask "why would they need to point that out to people as being bad?"

So...err...its still ok to use it on hampsters right? :eyebrow:
Yup, and rabbits.
