OPINION

AMBRO, Circuit Judge.

Plaintiffs Shain and Rafaela Koorn brought a seventeen-count complaint against Lacey Township and various Township officials and departments, 1 alleging the Township’s enactment of an animal control ordinance violates their constitutional and statutory civil rights because it was motivated by racial animus. The United States District Court for the District of New Jersey granted the Township’s motion for summary judgment on all claims, though its written decision focused primarily on the Koorns’ substantive due process claim. Finding no error, we affirm.
