Animals shall be moved or allowed to move into the State of Oklahoma only in accordance with rules promulgated by the State Board of Agriculture and regulations of the United States Department of Agriculture. It shall be the duty of each owner or person in control of animals in this state to present all animals for testing when notified by the State Veterinarian or the authorized agent of the State Veterinarian. The owner or person in control of the animals shall render any assistance in restraining the animals required by the State Veterinarian or the authorized agent of the State Veterinarian. If the owner or person in control neglects or refuses to present the animals for testing or adequately assist in restraining them, the State Veterinarian or the authorized agent of the State Veterinarian may call upon the sheriff of the county for any necessary assistance. The sheriff shall be paid for the work the same fees as are collected for the execution of a writ of attachment. Unless the fees are paid immediately by the owner or person in control, the sheriff may seize as many of the animals as are necessary for the payment of the fees, and after ten (10) days shall sell the animals to recover the fees and costs accrued.
