>>However, the appeals court on Thursday said in a six-page written ruling that an ordinary person reading the law would understand that they need to get a veterinary inspection and entry permit for these animals.

Interesting precedent they're setting...how many people living in UT buy snakes online from out of state and know about, let alone get, a veterinary inspection?

UT HAS to uphold Ryan's conviction...they have to show that they accomplished SOMETHING to justify their killing of most of his research animals.
