South Dakota lawmakers have taken a significant step toward restricting lab-grown meat, with the Senate Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee passing two bills targeting the emerging food technology. House Bill 1109, which seeks to ban the sale and production of cell-cultured meat in the state, and House Bill 1118, which prohibits state funds from being used to research or promote lab-grown meat, both advanced with narrow votes. As federal agencies, such as the USDA and FDA, approve cell-cultured chicken products, critics argue that South Dakota is stepping in ahead of potential benefits, while others worry about food safety. This move positions South Dakota alongside states like Florida and Alabama in restricting the future of lab-grown meat products.

A group of Sioux Falls residents has launched a petition to challenge the City Council’s recent decision to surplus the Brockhouse taxidermy animal collection. The decision, made last week, would send most of the collection to the University of Notre Dame’s Museum of Biodiversity. Petition organizers argue that voters should have the chance to approve or reject the City Council’s resolution. The petition is currently available for signatures at Abby Normal’s Museum of the Strange, and organizers are aiming for at least 7,600 signatures to force a public vote.
