A student behaving like a silly goose in Oklahoma could soon be hauled out of class by animal control.
State Rep. Justin Humphrey introduced a bill on Tuesday that would ban furries from public schools across the state — and allow animal control to round up those who defy the proposed law.
“Students who purport to be an imaginary animal or animal species, or who engage in anthropomorphic behavior commonly referred to as furries at school shall not be allowed to participate in school curriculum or activities,” House Bill 3084 states.
The legislation would require parents or guardians to pick up their child from school. Otherwise, “animal control services shall be contacted to remove the student,” the bill states.
If passed, the law would take effect in November.
The Republican lawmaker — who previously proposed creating a Bigfoot hunting season in the state — did not expand on the definition of furry-esque behavior or what kind of animalistic mannerisms or dress would get a kid kicked out of the classroom.

Humphrey did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
Although the bill itself doesn’t include a goal or reasoning for its existence, Humphrey previously said it was to deter children from identifying as animals.
“People are going to call me insane for running this bill. Hell, I’d say they’re insane,” he said in a video.
“If you got an animal coming to school: how about we get them vaccinated? How about we get them neutered and how about we send them to the pound?”
The Republican seemingly pointed to a bogus rumor that a Michigan school district was providing litter boxes for students who identified as “furries.”
The story was swiftly debunked as a tall tale last year.
