Section 85. Destruction of animals; disposition of carcasses

The
  commissioner may prescribe rules for the destruction of animals affected
  with infectious or communicable disease, and for the proper disposal  of
  their hides and carcasses and all objects which might carry infection or
  contagion.  Whenever  in  his judgment necessary for the more speedy and
  economical suppression or prevention of the spread of any  such  disease
  he may cause to be slaughtered and afterward disposed of, in such manner
  as  he  may  deem  expedient,  any animal or animals which by contact or
  association with diseased animals or  other  exposure  to  infection  or
  contagion  may  be  considered  or suspected to be liable to contract or
  communicate the disease sought to  be  suppressed  or  prevented.    The
  commissioner  may  seize  and  cause  to  be  destroyed a carcass or any
  portion thereof affected with any communicable disease.
