Movement of animals has led to direct contact between man and animals. It has become very rampant because of the availability of fodders in every town and city of Edo State. Cattle owners have seized the opportunities to fattening their cattle. Against this background, herdsmen are hired and made to herald cattle into towns and cities of Edo State. It is worthy of note that these contacts between man and animal have been very productive in some respect and in other cases very destructive. It has been productive where it generates food, raw materials, income for man and means of transportation. It has been destructive where it leads to destruction of crops and some other criminal acts like rape, assault, assault occasioning harm and even murder. Recent movement of cattle by herdsmen in towns and cities of Edo State has been encapsulated with animal activities by herdsmen and their cattle. Against the above background, suggestions have gravitated between the restraints of the movement of cattle and that the creation of colonies for grazing purposes in Edo State. In response therefore, this study shall attempt to critically assess the existing laws of Edo State as it relates to movement of animals with special focus on a comparative approach. This work shall also attempt to proffer legally admissible recommendations that could curb the menace created by the lacuna in the extant laws of Edo State.
