North Dakota Century Code Title 36. Livestock § 36-25-05. Confinement--Rules

Farmed elk must be confined in a manner designed to prevent escape. Unless otherwise required by rule, fencing for farmed elk must be at least eighty-four inches [213.36 centimeters] in height. If any farmed elk escape, their owner shall report the escape to the board within one business day of the discovery and shall notify the board upon recapture. The owner is liable for the expenses incurred by another person in capturing, caring for, and returning farmed elk that have escaped, provided the other person notifies the owner as soon as practicable after discovering the escape.
