Dangerous animal condition - When relief is allowed
A “dangerous animal condition” exists when a dangerous animal (such as a poisonous snake or an alligator) near your ball could cause you serious physical injury if you had to play the ball as it lies. You may take relief from interference by a dangerous animal condition no matter where your ball is on the course. This Rule does not apply to other situations on the course that could cause physical harm (such as a cactus).
