In Oklahoma, it is illegal to share a hamburger with another person. Strange food laws exist internationally, such as Scotland's prohibition against drunkenly handling livestock and New York's ban on carrying ice cream cones in pockets on Sundays. The Salmon Act of 1986 in the UK aims to prohibit illegal fishing practices, addressing behaviors labeled as 'suspicious.' This includes taking, killing, or landing fish without proper authorization or purchasing fish believed to be illegally obtained, holding the buyer accountable under the law.
In Oklahoma, sharing a hamburger is illegal, while Scotland prohibits drunkenly handling a cow or horse. Unusually, New York has laws against carrying ice cream cones in your pocket on Sundays.
The Salmon Act of 1986, particularly section 32, aims to prevent illegal catching, handling, and selling of fish, with particular attention to behaviors deemed 'suspicious'.
Suspicious behaviors under the Salmon Act include the taking, killing, or landing of illegally obtained fish, along with the purchasing of such fish from illegal sources.
Under this law, if someone purchases fish they 'reasonably' believe to be illegally obtained, they can be found guilty in court, regardless of personal involvement in the illegal act.
