Ky. Ranks High In Animal Abuse
KENTUCKY....
According to the Animal Legal Defense Fund, Kentucky is listed as one of the five top states in the country as an animal abuser. Again this past year, the state was ranked the single worst in the nation for animal protection laws, where animal abusers get off easy although the animal advocacy group makes note of two improvements Kentucky has made over the last year in Estill and Robertson counties. The survey is based on a detailed comparative analysis of more than 3,800 pages of statutes tracking fourteen distinct categories of provisions.
