California animal a bozos anger Kansas state official Topeka Kan.

The Law was crafted to keep animal rights activists from entering a research lab and photographing animals for their campaigns against animal testing officials say. Much of the criticism led by a California assemblyman has entered on allegations that Kansas protects a Puppy Mills a substandard Breeding operations that ship sick animals out of state. Stephan said the measure which was signed into Law last month does not apply to commercial dog kennels.
