This bill as written will greatly affect anybody that keeps any snakes in the State of Ohio. It was introduced for the first time Mar 8, by Sen. Troy Balderson. It is a knee jerk reaction to the Zanesville tragedy. I looked in the Senate Journal for the 8th but there is no information on what was discussed concerning this bill on the 8th. Anybody heard anything else?
 
heres an excerpt from sb310...nothing says "break in to my house and steal my snakes" like signs posted every 10 feet. No doubt the state will be glad to give you fair market value for your stolen animals.
THe fees and insurance requirements are also rediculous...1k if you want to breed snakes, and you must carry 500k insurance if you have more than 16 animals..one boa litter.
Demand will sure drop off..and costs go up..



Sec. 935.18. (A) Except for a restricted snake specified in division (K)(1) of section 935.01 of the Revised Code, no person shall sell or offer for sale at auction a dangerous wild animal or restricted snake.
(B) No person shall knowingly remove a microchip that is implanted in a dangerous wild animal as required in section 935.04 of the Revised Code.
(C) No person that possesses a dangerous wild animal or restricted snake shall fail to post and display any of the following:
(1) At intervals of ten feet along the boundary of the property where each dangerous wild animal is confined, signs warning the public that a dangerous wild animal or restricted snake, as applicable, is on the property;
(2) At the main entrance to the property where each dangerous wild animal or restricted snake is confined, a sign warning the public that a dangerous wild animal or restricted snake, as applicable, is on the property;
(3) On a vehicle that is used to transport a dangerous wild animal or restricted snake, a sign warning that a dangerous wild animal or restricted snake, as applicable, is in the vehicle.
