Through Sheep

The act listed "ox, cow, heifer, steer, sheep, or other cattle". This was held not to include bulls. Section 2 of the Cruelty to Animals Act 1835 (5 & 6 Will. 4. c. 59) extended the wording of this act to remedy the issue.

Subsequent developments

The act was repealed by section 1 of the Cruelty to Animals Act 1835 (5 & 6 Will. 4. c. 59), which came into force on 9 September 1835.
