About this statute

This provision says the law applies to all animals, and that special rules also apply for hunting, fishing, veterinary treatment, breeding, artificial reproduction, experimental animal activities with vertebrates, genetic technology, and nature protection. Reglerna i 1 och 2 mom. gäller inte för användning av ryggradsdjur i försöksdjursverksamhet eller ryggradslösa djur i annan vetenskaplig forskning. Det är förbjudet att använda genteknik för att ändra djurproduktionens kvantitet eller kvalitet om det kan skada djurens hälsa eller välbefinnande. This section says that the rules in the referenced animal-experimentation law apply to photography and filming done for the purpose described in section 8 of that law. A person can be convicted of an animal welfare offence if, intentionally or negligently, they violate listed animal-related prohibitions or duties.
