ANIMAL ABUSE, CRUELTY AND NEGLECT
HOW TO REPORT A SUSPECTED CASE OF ANIMAL CRUELTY OR NEGLECT
Because a report of animal cruelty may result in a criminal investigation, please start by contacting your local police department or animal control division to make a complaint. Keep in mind that although a complaint can be made anonymously, a successful prosecution of a cruelty case often depends on an identifiable witness that may be called upon to testify. Without tips from concerned citizens in our community, many animals would remain in abusive circumstances unable to defend themselves.
