This bill, proposed in Minnesota, changes how people must act if they find a lost animal, known as an estray. If the person who finds the animal knows who owns it, they must notify the owner within seven days and ask for payment for any reasonable costs incurred while caring for the animal. If the finder doesn't know the owner, they have two choices: within ten days, they must either file a notice with the local town or city clerk and also post a notice online or in a physical location describing the animal and giving contact details, or they must give the animal to a local animal control agency or a registered kennel within seven days.

The bill specifies that if someone fails to follow these steps, they may be required to pay the owner of the animal twice the amount of financial damages the owner suffered due to the loss of their animal.
