Cap. 16 Art. 376Where subject of usufruct is a herd.

(1) The same rule shall apply where the subject of the usufruct is a herd, and the whole herd perishes without the fault of the usufructuary.

(2) Where, however, the herd does not perish entirely, the usufructuary shall be bound to replace the heads which have perished, but not beyond the number of the animals born since the commencement of the usufruct and existing in his possession and of those born after the herd commenced to be deficient in its original number.
