I haven't done post with a strange ordinance of the day recently, but came across this one while researching "at large" elections. This bit of hilarity comes to us from WI State Statutes. Although it is a statute, and not an ordinance, it is still a good warning for those among you who let your boars and billy goats run loose after they hit 4 months old.
-----------------------------
172.01 Animals not to run at large. No stallion over one year old, nor bull over 6 months old, nor boar, nor ram, nor billy goat over 4 months old shall run at large. If the owner or keeper of an animal described in this section, for any reason, permit the animal to run at large, the owner or keeper shall forfeit $5 to the person taking up the animal and shall be liable in addition for all damages done by the animal while at large, regardless of whether the animal's escape was the fault of the owner or keeper.
