.~.~ Animal confined to predetermined territorial location
DEFINITION
Classification: 119/721
Animal confined to predetermined territorial location:
(under subclass 720) Subject matter wherein the limiting means restricts travel of the animal to a predefined geos:graphical area.
(1) Note. The remote control feature, e.g., a buried wire, above ground fence, central transmitter, etc., may operate in conjunction with animal-carried circuitry. An above ground
electric fence which only limits travel of the animal by direct electrical contact with the animal is not proper for this subclass nor is a remote control device held by a human to control the actions of the animal, unless the remote control device includes structure limiting the animal to a predetermined territorial location.
