Wyoming Veterinary Medical Practice Act

Wyoming · Professions and Occupations · §§ 33-30-201 to 33-30-225 · 25 sections

Overview

This act establishes the legal framework governing the practice of veterinary medicine within a state, defining who may practice, what activities constitute veterinary practice, and which persons and activities are exempt from its requirements. It creates a state veterinary licensing board with defined membership and organizational structure, vesting it with the power to license veterinarians through examination or endorsement, issue temporary permits, certify veterinary technicians and technologists, set continuing education requirements, and administer periodic renewal and reinstatement. The act also gives the board disciplinary authority to deny, suspend, or revoke licenses and certificates and to impose civil penalties, backed by criminal penalties and injunctive relief against unlicensed practice, and it addresses related matters such as the handling of abandoned animals and the treatment of specific animal-care procedures that fall near the boundary of licensed practice.
