AL SB164

Bovine owners are not liable for injury, loss, damage, or death resulting from inherent risks of bovine activities, including the unpredictability of bovine behavior and property hazards.

Liability protections do not apply if the owner fails to post a warning sign, commits willful or wanton disregard for safety, or has actual knowledge of a specific bovine's dangerous propensity that was not made known to the person injured.

Warning signs must be posted in clearly visible locations near stables, corrals, fences, or arenas where bovine activities occur, with black letters at least one inch in height.

Article 2 of Chapter 15 of Title 35 of the Alabama Code does not apply to bovine owners for injuries resulting from inherent risks of bovine activities.

The act becomes effective on January 1, 2025.
