## Sec. 201 **[**[21 U.S.C. 641](/us/usc/t21/s641)**]** Inspection shall not be provided under title I of this Act at any establishment for the slaughter of amenable species,25 or the preparation of any carcasses or parts of products of such animals, which are not intended for use as human food, but such articles shall, prior to their offer for sale or transportation in commerce, unless naturally inedible by humans, be denatured or otherwise identified as prescribed by regulations of the Secretary to deter their use for human food.
No person, firm, or corporation shall buy, sell, transport, or offer for sale or transportation, or receive for transportation, in commerce, or import, any carcasses, parts thereof, meat or meat food products of any such animals. Which are not intended for use as human food unless they are denatured or otherwise identified as required by the regulations of the Secretary or are naturally inedible by humans. 25Sec. 798(1) of P.L. 109–97, Nov. 10, 2005, amended the Act by striking “cattle, sheep, swine, goats, horses, mules, and other equines” each place it appears and inserting “amenable species”.
Although the previous text read “cattle, sheep, swine, goats, horses, mules, or other equines”, the amendment was executed to effectuate the probable intent of Congress.
