Animal sales refer to the buying and selling of animals, often for purposes such as companionship, farming, or research. This market includes various types of animals, such as pets like dogs and cats, livestock like cows and sheep, and even exotic animals. Sales can occur through pet stores, online platforms, or auctions. Regulations often govern animal sales to ensure the welfare of the animals and the safety of buyers. These laws may include licensing requirements for sellers, health checks for animals, and guidelines for proper care. Responsible practices are essential to promote ethical treatment and prevent issues like overbreeding or abandonment.
