If I may, and I appreciate the gentleman's concern, but we have been able to successfully ship dogs around the country; they have been able to have dogs for show purposes, and they have been outlawed for some 50 years, meaning transport for fighting purposes. Why could we not do the same thing, have the same protection for poultry that we have for dogs?
