Shooting the animal harassing or harming livestock or people is also codified in at least one other state of which I am aware. I believe this to be the case in many areas, but have not yet researched it.
If anyone would care to state their local laws - with statute numbers, please - it may be of interest to all who visit this thread.
I’ll look for a copy of the statutes in this particular county, since they vary from county to county-the rules seem to be tougher and more favorable to the property and/or animal owner in rural counties like this one because of all the livestock that is a big part of people’s income in rural areas.
We have snowbirds from up North residing here in RVs and cabins from October to late March/early April, and then the weekenders and day trippers in Summer. The snowbirds are responsible and respectful of everyone in this community-they keep their pets confined-but the weekenders and day trippers trespass on our properties, climbing fences, ignoring signs, their unleashed dogs running up and down the roads, getting over/under fences etc-they are the biggest problem-with less manners than their dogs...
