You must take the Core section test and at least one other category in order to get a license.

Ohio 4-H Animal Sciences

Fair season is well underway. We received the following article: Knowing Ohio’s Livestock Tampering Laws Helps Maintain Responsible Food Production at Ohio’s Fairs, by Dr. Tony Forshey. Dr. Forshey urges “all of our youth exhibitors to be aware of Ohio’s livestock tampering laws and to be diligent in making sure your animal does not fall victim to an accidental or intentional tampering.”

The article is posted on each of the applicable species’ resource pages at http://www.ohio4h.org/statewide-programs/animal-sciences.

Please take the time to read this. For additional information or clarification, contact the Ohio Department of Agriculture’s Division of Animal Health at 614.728.6220.
