The Law

You cannot parade a pet tiger, bear, or leopard down the city's primary commercial thoroughfare, regardless of how sturdy your leash is. While owning exotic pets was historically less regulated in rural areas, city officials drew the line at bringing apex predators out for window-shopping. The ordinance aimed to protect panicking horses and nervous pedestrians.
