It looks at the historical, political and philosophical context of the Department. It examines the validity of grievances made by local animal welfare groups against the Department and analyzes the LAAS Department structure and policies. Using a comparative case­study, it identifies the San Francisco animal care facilities as effective models for LAAS. Through an exploration of such themes, this report makes pragmatic policy recommendations for the Department with the goal of lowering shelter euthanasia rates. 3 INTRODUCTION 4 When asked about why activists have targeted LAAS in recent years, cofounder of Animal Defense League – Los Angeles (ADL­LA) Jerry Vlasik argued that the group wanted to focus on one municipal shelter whose reformed policies could translate “throughout the nation”. He believes that if the city goes “no­kill” it will serve as a model for all cities. Vlasik contends that LAAS is not worse than other municipalities.

  • 2019 Biennial Compensation and Benefits Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Information Submitted on Or Before May 7, 2020
    2019 Biennial Compensation and Benefits Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Information Submitted on or before May 7, 2020 I N T R O D U C T I O N A N D I N S I G H T S Organizations in the field of animal welfare employ a unique workforce with distinctive expertise in leadership, organizational governance, animal protection, animal cruelty investigation, behavior rehabilitation, veterinary care, adoption, fundraising, advocacy, human resources, finance, community education and collaboration. Although compensation and benefits surveys exist for many industries, no salary study is compatible with the knowledge and skills needed for mastery of animal welfare. For that reason, The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement (The Association) leadership were compelled to begin collecting data in 2003 (based on FY 2002 data). Since 2003, animal welfare services have evolved: adoption is no longer the main activity at animal care facilities as the numbers of homeless dogs and cats have declined in many regions; community needs have altered; collaborations and mergers have increased; and, animal focused legislation has fluctuated. In response, animal care facilities models continue to adapt to community and animal needs. Consequently The Association volunteer leadership continually reviews the compensation and benefits survey adding or altering job descriptions and accessing needs for additional decision making data. For instance, the effect on salary of those achieving Certified Animal Welfare Administrator (CAWA) status; or, being a male/female in the same role are now studied. In 2019 the first “digital” survey was launched, based on FY 2018 data, allowing participants to instantly compare their data with other regions and budget size over a variety of key performance indicators.

  • 1-Animals on Their Own Terms
    Animals on Their Own Terms: Where Advocacy Can Go From Here by Lee Hall1 It’s an especially important time to be an animal advocate. The word’s out that our little planet will be home to more than nine billion human beings by 2050. The resources we allocate to the animals we domesticate are drawing intense scrutiny. Many people in the industrialized world accept that we must “cut back” on consumption; but serious change is called for. Animal-rights voices must be heard in this urgent discussion, because without them -- that is, without transcending the individual and collective habits connected with dominion over the planet’s life -- humans will be locked into a cycle of pollution and pillage of the land and seas. Taking animal rights seriously can free us from the cycle. Had we respected the lives and futures of pink dolphins, marmosets, jaguars and tamarins, could we have ravaged the forests to make way for an industry that creates hamburgers? Surely we could never have devoted the great plains of North America to single-crop feed growing, interspersed with cattle feedlots, had we taken seriously the interests of river otters, whooping cranes, burrowing owls, long-billed curlews, wolves, black-footed ferrets, coyotes and kit foxes. Respecting free-living animals would keep natural areas intact, force humanity to confront its dependence on animal agribusiness, and address the causes of our climate crisis. What has animal-rights theory proposed so far? We are not the only ones born with interests, and so, advocates have urged, we are not the only ones whose interests should be respected.

  • Animal Control in Anchorage, Alaska: Cats and Dogs Deserve Fair and Equal Treatment,” a Report Prepared by a Member of Our Commission
    MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE Planning Department Phone: 907-343-7921 Long-Range Planning Division Fax: 907-343-7927 Mayor Ethan Berkowitz WATERSHED & NATURAL RESOURCES ADVISORY COMMISSION December 20, 2019 Animal Control Advisory Board Municipality of Anchorage P.O. Box 196650 Anchorage, AK 99519-6650 Dear Board Members: Cats are now the most numerous household pets in the Municipality of Anchorage, a reflection of national trends. However, for several reasons, cats and cat owners are not held to the same standards as dogs or dog owners. Other pets, such as rabbits and ferrets, are also treated somewhat differently, with little or no justification. We hope to engage your board in a collaborative effort to rectify this imbalance. In our advisory capacities, we have overlapping responsibilities with regard to pets and their impacts on people and the natural environment. Anchorage’s Animal Control Advisory Board is a key player in municipal and state efforts to care for and control domestic pets, particularly those concerning the health, welfare, and safety of animals and people in our community. Some of the principal concerns of the board include (1) strategic planning, enforcement, public education, prioritizing capital needs, and increasing the number of pets adopted, claimed, rescued and housed; (2) reviewing and making recommendations on municipal ordinances related to animals; and (3) promoting safe and healthy use of public spaces by pets and pet owners. Anchorage’s Watershed & Natural Resources Advisory Commission serves as a technical liaison between municipal departments, the community, and state and federal agencies that manage water quality, watersheds and natural resources. The principal concerns of our commission include (1) sustaining the economic and community benefits of healthy creeks, watersheds and natural habitats; (2) restoring and improving fish and wildlife habitat; and (3) increasing community stewardship of aquatic and other natural resources within the Municipality.

To the familiar list of horrors-torture of animals in the meat indus- try, misery inflicted on puppies by puppy mills, the damages of research using animals, the manifold harms endemic to the confinement of apes and elephants in zoos, we have some further issues that have only be- come issues in the past few decades: depletion of whale stocks by har- pooning, the confinement of orcas and dolphins in marine theme parks, the poaching of elephants and rhinos for the international black market, the illicit trafficking of elephants from Africa into U.S. zoos, the devasta- tion of habitat for many large mammals through climate change.' New issues arise all the time. The world needs an ethical revolution, a con- sciousness raising movement of truly international proportions. But bad behavior also needs law.
