Book excerpt: Under K.S.A. 47-632, the Livestock Commissioner does not have a statutory responsibility to indemnify the owner of an individual domestic animal, except for a bovine, which the Commissioner condemns due to the animal being affected with tuberculosis. By contrast, K.S.A. 47-633a applies when an entire herd of domestic animals, as defined, is condemned by the Livestock Commissioner because tuberculosis has been diagnosed in any animal within the herd. In that event the Livestock Commissioner is required to indemnify the herd owner based on an established formula for animals in the condemned herd regardless of type, although maximum amounts are set for bovines. Thus the Livestock Commissioner does not have a statutory responsibility to indemnify the owner of individual elk which the Commissioner may condemn due to the animal being affected with tuberculosis, but does have such responsibility if an entire herd of elk are condemned.
