     The maximum penalty for a first offense animal cruelty conviction in Idaho is six months in jail and/or a fine up to $5,000. On a third conviction, the maximum penalty is up to one year in jail and/or a fine up to $9,000. In other states' 2008 sessions, Utah and Alaska enacted felony animal cruelty laws, leaving only five states without such provisions. Those states are Arkansas, Idaho, Mississippi, North Dakota and South Dakota. This a law that we must change... Please sign the petition to help us give the animals a voice.
