infectious disease, a disease of concern, or a residue, the person immediately shall
give notice of that fact to the director of agriculture or to a licensed veterinarian. (B) If a veterinarian receives notice of the existence or suspected existence of a dangerously
contagious or infectious disease, a disease of concern, or a residue as provided in
division (A) of this section, the veterinarian immediately shall communicate that
notice to the director. (C) No person shall sell, attempt to sell, keep with intent to sell, or otherwise transfer
to another person an animal that the person knows, or has reason to know, is infected
with or exposed to any dangerously contagious or infectious disease or a disease of
concern or is adulterated with a residue, except as otherwise provided in this chapter
or rules adopted under it. (D) The offense established under division (C) of this section is a strict liability
