Abstract

Original legislation for the management of dead animals in Missouri was developed in the 1940s. As livestock operations grew larger and more sophisticated means of animal production, transport, slaughtering and processing were developed, the legislation became outdated. New legislation was developed. The Missouri Dead Animal Disposal Statute was passed by the 86th General Assembly and became law on Aug. 28, 1992. The compliance dates for the law are immediate for all animals except poultry and turkeys. For poultry and turkeys, the compliance deadline is July 1, 1995. This law does not apply to wildlife.
