Who regulates the movement of rodents intended as animal feed?

• A. CDC
• B. US Food and Drug Administration
• C. US Fish and Wildlife Service
• D. FDA

Answer: (D)

The movement of rodents intended as animal feed is regulated by the FDA. The FDA oversees animal feed and its ingredients, covering safety, labeling, and interstate commerce of feed products. This includes rules for how feed materials are produced, transported, and distributed to ensure they don’t introduce contaminants or pose health risks to animals consuming the feed. CDC focuses on disease surveillance and prevention, not feed regulation, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service deals with wildlife and habitat issues, not routine feed movement. So FDA is the agency with primary authority over this area.
