Report Animal Abuse Biography
Typical offenses include pets left outside without adequate shelter, food or water. But other problems also need our attention. A pet or a horse that appears ill or injured, a pet with a badly matted coat, an animal (including wildlife) that has been intentionally harmed—all of these situations warrant a closer look by our animal welfare investigators. Reports are kept confidential.
Most reports are resolved by educating owners; however, when necessary, we can issue summonses and take a case to court. Our investigators are state-commissioned peace officers who are relentless pursuers of justice on behalf of abused or neglected animals.

Why report animal abuse?
Even if you aren’t an animal lover, please report animal cruelty. It has far-reaching implications for our society. Studies show that people who intentionally harm animals are also likely to commit violent crimes toward people. So, by taking the time to report what you observe, you’ll not only be helping the animals involved, you’ll be helping to prevent future crimes and promoting respect for all life.

After years of pressure from LCA and animal rights advocates, the City of Los Angeles is set to vote to ban elephants from performing in circuses within its city limits as well as the use of bull-hooks. If the City Council adopts the ban this year, Ringling Brothers, the oldest continuously operated circus in the country, will be barred from the nation’s second-largest city unless its owners agree to abandon its signature elephant act.
