Section 1180.42 - Slaughtering of Animals for Zoo Use
(a) When the Director finds that there is no ready supply of raw animal meat available for use in the feeding of zoo animals, he may, after investigation of the slaughtering facilities, exempt the licensed slaughterer from specific provisions of these regulations under condition which will not conflict with the purposes of Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 19200) of Part 3 of Division 9 of the Agricultural Code. Providing: That such slaughterer notifies the Chief of the Bureau as to where and at what time each animal is to be slaughtered and that such slaughtering and handling is conducted in such a manner that it does not create a public nuisance and all meat or horsemeat resulting from such slaughter is moved immediately (on the same day) after slaughter to the zoo. No meat from such slaughtering operation shall be used for any other purpose than for sale to a zoo.
