Resumen

A local authority may, subject to the approval of the Minister, from time to time by Order published in the Gazette constitute any place within its City town, village or community prohibited areas. Power to declare prohibited areas outside town limits lies with the Minister. The owner of any cattle found tethered, running loose or at large in any street in any prohibited area, or running loose or at large in any open lot in any prohibited area, shall for each head of cattle found tethered, running loose or at large be liable to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars. Any person may seize and deliver any cattle found tethered or loose or at large in any street in any prohibited area, or loose or at large in any open lot in any prohibited area, into the custody of the keeper of any public pound, whose duty it is to receive and keep the same, subject to the provisions of the Pounds Act or, if there should be no public pound within the prohibited area in which the cattle has been found, to confine the cattle in any suitable place. The Act further defines measures that may be taken by public officers, land owners and other private persons against straying animals. (12 sections)
