QUEBEC 
An Act RELATING TO FoxEs AND OTHER FUR-BEARING ANIMALS 
Kept In CaPTIvITy 
HEREAS certain persons in the Province of Quebec have engaged 
in the business of raising or breeding foxes and other fur-bearing 
animals kept in captivity; 
Whereas it is desirable to encourage this industry, as well because 
of the diminishing supply of our most valuable furs, as of the rich 
source of profit which this industry has proved itself to be in some 
of the sister provinces; 
Whereas it is essential to the successful breeding of these animals 
in captivity that they should be protected from disturbance by strangers, 
or persons other than the owner or keeper of the said animals; 
Therefore, His Majesty, with the advice and consent of the Legis-

follows: 
1. Every one is guilty of an offence and liable to the penalty here- 
inafter provided who at any time hereafter, in any part of the Province, 
without the consent of the owner or caretaker of a ranch or enclosure 
where foxes or othe: fur-bearing animals are kept in captivity for breed-
