§21-717.
   
   If the owner of a mischievous animal, knowing its propensities,
   wilfully suffers it to go at large, or keeps it without ordinary care,
   and such animal, while so at large or not confined, kills any human
   being who has taken all the precautions which the circumstances
   permitted, to avoid such animal, the owner is deemed guilty of
   manslaughter in the second degree.
