The above map details states that have Equine Activity Liability Laws. Currently (2024), 48 states have enacted laws which limit the liability of equine sponsors and professionals, veterinarians, or others, for the injury or death of a participant as a result of, or due to the inherent risk of equine activity or agricultural tourism activities. These state statutes also provide the duties of equine activity participants. However, many statutes also provide exceptions for which the immunity of limited liability may not apply. Two states do not have any laws regarding equine activity liability (California and Maryland).
