Yes its a new day for me dont judge

In California, if you enter frogs into a frog jumping contest and they die, by law you are required to destroy them. They can not be used for any other purpose, such as eating.

Appreciate legislature

California has some weird laws.. I like frogs too, this makes me sad. :(
What happens if you do not destroy them, is it a fine or jail or what?

It's counted as a misdemeanor, usually that means fines since its more minor.
