Living with Wildlife
Animal Reports
The Police Department does not have the equipment or resources to house stray or injured domestic or wild animals. The Police Department will, however, respond to a report of an injured or sick domestic or wild animal or to one that poses an immediate threat to human life or property. All other cases will be referred to either
Lake County Animal Control or to a private agency with the means for the capture, relocation, housing, or disposal of wild animals at the cost of the homeowner.
