When any person arrested under this act is in charge of any
vehicle drawn by or containing any livestock animal cruelly
treated in violation of W.S. 6-3-1002 or this chapter at the
time of arrest, any peace officer, agent or officer of the board
may take charge of the livestock animal and vehicle and its
contents, and give notice thereof to the owner, if known, and
shall provide for them until their owner takes possession of
them. The board or local government shall have a lien on the

reasonable costs of impoundment. The expense or any part
remaining unpaid may be recovered by the board or local
government in a civil action.
