Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Originally passed in 1878, this book focuses on a new law enacted in 1906 to prevent cruelty to animals during the interstate transport of livestock by rail, boat, and other methods. This book analyzes the 28-Hour Law, passed to ensure proper feeding, watering, rest, and humane handling of animals, and to avoid the abuse and suffering animals had faced while being transported. The author discusses the law's enforcement, noting some abuses and violations that still occur, as well as describing its overall benefits for protecting the health and condition of livestock during transit. The book provides a glimpse into the history of animal welfare and humane transportation practices in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the United States.
