In red is the part that applys. As you can see it says that all nonidingenous animals are considered exotic wildlife. In green you see the species that the law says are exempt. It takes the time to list cattle and horses but not cat nor dogs. Again, as they are not included in the list of exempt species and cats and dogs are nonindingenous animals, therefor they fall into that category in which the law says they are exotic wildlife.
The text is right in front of you. How can you argue it?? Its spelled out. Im sorry if you dont understand but its what the law says.
You obviously can't back up your argument of I'm wrong and just storm off. I will ask yet again, if you are that sure that I am wrong, point out the flaws in my argument. The law is right in front of you, show me where and how Im wrong and I am more than man enough to admit my mistake.
