Please re-read the bill. Notice this part:
"Section 1. Section 370 of the agriculture and markets law, as added by chapter 1047 of the laws of 1965, is amended to read as follows:
S 370. [Protection of the public from attack by] PROHIBITION OF THE OWNERSHIP, POSSESSION OR HARBORING OF wild animals and reptiles."
Notice that the info in [brackets] is being removed, and info in CAPS is being ADDED.
So, it would seem that while the law was origionally regarding keeping the public safe from these animals, it is now making it illegal to own them, AND increasing the penalty.
