Coyotes tend to be more slender; have wide, pointed ears; a long, tapered muzzle; yellow eyes; slender legs; small feet; and an uncurled, bushy tail which is carried low to the ground. The pelage (fur) is usually a grizzled-gray color with a cream-colored or white underside but coloration is variable with individuals having blonde, reddish, and charcoal coat colors. Coat color does not vary between the sexes. Most coyotes have dark hairs over the back and a black-tipped tail, which has a black spot near its base covering a distinctive scent gland. However, not all coyotes have the black markings. Range: Originally an inhabitant of the western plains of the United States, the coyote now occurs from Alaska south into Central America and east from the Atlantic Provinces to the southeastern United States.

  • Amelioration of Pet Overpopulation and Abandonment Using Control of Breeding and Sale, and Compulsory Owner Liability Insurance
    animals Article Amelioration of Pet Overpopulation and Abandonment Using Control of Breeding and Sale, and Compulsory Owner Liability Insurance Eva Bernete Perdomo 1,* , Jorge E. Araña Padilla 1 and Siegfried Dewitte 2 1 University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 35017 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain; [email protected] 2 Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Overpopulation and abandonment of pets are long-standing and burgeoning concerns that involve uncontrolled breeding and selling, illegal trafficking, overpopulation, and pet- safety and well-being issues. Historical and current prevention measures for avoiding these problems, such as sanctions, taxes, or responsibility education, have failed to provide significant moderation or resolution. Globally, millions of pets are commercially and privately bred and abandoned annually, damaging biodiversity and ecosystems, and presenting road safety and public health risks, in addition to becoming victims of hardship, abuse, and illegal trafficking, especially in the case of exotic species. This article proposes a novel comprehensive management system for amelioration of overpopulation and abandonment of pets by using greater control of supply and demand of the pet market, highlighting the role of the compulsory owner liability insurance to prevent pet abandonment and all its associated costs. This system aims to act preventatively, through flexible protocols within the proposed management system to be applied to any pet and any country.

  • Maine Criminal Animal Cruelty Laws
    Current Through February 15, 2018 Maine Animal Cruelty Laws Jennifer Frana and Sarah Scharf 1 Amended by Sarah Butson2 INTRODUCTION Maine’s prohibitions against cruelty to animals fall within a comprehensive statutory framework. Central prohibitions are listed below, and discussed in the following order: • Title 7 – Agriculture and Animals o Chapter 717 – Animal Welfare Act, 7 M.R.S.A. §§ 3901 - 10-B. o Chapter 739 – Cruelty to Animals, 7 M.R.S.A. §§ 4011-19. o See also Chapter 731 – Mistreatment of Animals, 7 M.R.S.A. § 3971-72 (concerning vivisection and unlawful use). • Title 17 – Crimes o Chapter 42 – Animal Welfare (Subchapters 1-4), 17 M.R.S.A. §§ 1011-46. 3 Case law supports the point that cruelty to even one animal is enough to constitute a violation. See State v. Whitman, 876 A.2d. 40 (Me. 2005), State v. Wallace, 691 A.2d 1195 (Me. 1997), and State v. Libby, 556 A.2d 1099 (Me. 1989) (each applying to one animal). In the criminal code in Title 17, under Chapter 42 – Animal Welfare, the “attorney for the State shall elect to charge a defendant with the crime of cruelty to animals under [the criminal animal cruelty] section or the civil violation of cruelty to animals under Title 7, section 4011.” 17 M.R.S.A. § 1031; compare 7 M.R.S.A. § 4016 (a person who violates Chapter 739 – Cruelty to Animals of Title 7 “commits a civil violation”). Factors to consider in terms of pursuing civil versus criminal enforcement include the severity of the mistreatment, the number of animals involved, any prior animal cruelty convictions or adjudications, and “other factors” relevant to “accomplish[ing] the goals of the animal welfare laws” in any particular case.

  • Behavior Analysis of Companion-Animal Overpopulation: a Conceptualization of the Problem and Suggestions for Intervention
    Behavior and Social Issues, 13, 51-68 (2004). © Angela K. Fournier and E. Scott Geller. Readers of this article may copy it without the copyright owner’s permission, if the author and publisher are acknowledged in the copy and the copy is used for educational, not-for-profit purposes. BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS OF COMPANION-ANIMAL OVERPOPULATION: A CONCEPTUALIZATION OF THE PROBLEM AND SUGGESTIONS FOR INTERVENTION Angela K. Fournier and E. Scott Geller Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University ABSTRACT: This paper conceptualizes the societal problem of companion-animal overpopulation and offers a framework to humanely reduce the current surplus of animals and prevent further overpopulation. Overpopulation is described as a societal problem, with the individual and collective behavior of people as a causal agent. Variables in the environment, including animal-welfare agencies and the pet industry, are also discussed as contributing factors. Behavior and environment factors described in the conceptualization are targeted in a proposed framework for intervention. The intervention framework details relevant target populations and agencies, target behaviors, and dependent measures for evaluating intervention programs. Finally, environmental contingencies are described that support current behavior deficits and will likely impede environment and behavior changes proposed in the framework. It is suggested that behavior analysis can be used to manipulate these contingencies to initiate and sustain proposed changes to beneficially impact companion-animal overpopulation. Key words: companion-animal overpopulation, animal welfare, behavior analysis, social issues The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) estimates eight to ten million companion animals (i.e., cats and dogs) are relinquished to shelters each year and of those, four to five million are euthanized (HSUS, 2002).

  • Shelter Terminology Last Reviewed: February 2017
    Shelter Terminology Last reviewed: February 2017 Introduction The Association of Shelter Veterinarians supports the development of animal shelter operational policies based on an organization’s capacity for humane care and available resources, regardless of organizational philosophy. The guiding principle in the provision of humane care should always be animals’ needs, which remain the same regardless of an organization’s mission or challenges in meeting those needs. It is commonplace for humane organizations to describe their work philosophy through the use of popular terminology. However, such language often lacks clear and consistent definitions which has led to confusion, misperception, and discord in many communities. The ASV supports the Guiding Principles of the Asilomar Accords in their urge for organizations “to discuss language and terminology which has been historically viewed as hurtful or divisive by some animal welfare stakeholders (whether intentional or inadvertent), identify ‘problem’ language, and reach a consensus to modify or phase out language and terminology accordingly.”1 The ASV encourages sheltering organizations to define, adopt, and utilize language that describes their work clearly and consistently to both internal and external stakeholders. To that end, this document is meant to summarize the common ways in which sheltering language is used within the animal welfare field so that this information can be considered by organizations trying to refine the language they use to describe their own work. General Language Community Cats are free roaming feral, stray, abandoned or lost cats living outside with or without an owner or caretaker. The terms community cat, feral, and free roaming are sometimes used interchangeably.
