§ 3072. Brands
An owner of domestic fur-bearing animals may file with the secretary of agriculture, food and markets a written and signed statement containing a description or drawing of a brand or tattoo mark which he or she desires to employ to identify his or her animals, together with a statement as to the location on the animal where such mark will appear. Such a mark shall be one not in known use by another person and shall not include arabic numerals in its pattern. The secretary shall record such a mark in the name of the owner in a suitable book kept for the purpose in his or her office, upon the receipt of a recording fee of $3.00 for each such mark. The presence of a mark, so recorded, upon any such animal shall be prima facie evidence of the ownership of such animal in the person in whose name such mark is recorded. (Amended 1975, No. 220 (Adj. Sess.), § 15; 2003, No. 42, § 2, eff. May 27, 2003.)
