Strangest law in every state

That law may be due to the carnival acts wrestling bears. The bears were chained while they wrestled. Not sure who got the worst of it.

A section of the bear law says this.

"(4) For purposes of exploitation, subjects a bear to surgical alteration in any form, including, but not limited to, declawing, tooth removal, and severing tendons."

So it looks like the law was necessary to curb Bear Exploitation.

And in the other 49 states?

Traveling Circuses? Maybe these Carnivals went to all states. Also, as today, one state gets whiff of a law passed in another state. The other state thinks its a good idea and make a similar law. But, I'm just postulating. Still a good question why all 50 states.

South Carolina
No work on Sundays. It’s the law.

That's a place for robbers and other criminals: no security personnel nor police personnel working on Sundays!

Texas
It’s since been revoked--thank goodness--but for a while there, you’d pay a $10 fine for milking another person’s cow.

Cows had to be milked by their owners, NOT by hired personnel nor by slaves (when slavery still existed)? Even when the owner was sick or otherwise incapable for work?

Washington
If you see Bigfoot, it’s a felony punishment if you harass him.

Has such punishment ever been applied?
