In 1906 the Federal Government introduced a law regulating the transportation of livestock on railroads.
Known as the Twenty-Eight Hour Law, it is one of the nation's oldest animal protection laws and one of the few federal statutes that applies to farmed animals. The law provided that a carrier shall not keep livestock confined in cars for a period longer than twenty-eight consecutive hours without unloading for rest, water, and feeding, for a period of at least five hours. In addition, stock cars had to be placed directly behind the locomotive so that animals had the smoothest ride possible and that they could be tended to quickly.
