animal control officers
Wildlife enforcement agents
Animal control officers are government employees who handle issues involving domestic and wild animals in populated areas.
They respond to reports of stray, dangerous, or injured animals, enforce licensing and leash laws, investigate animal cruelty, and manage wildlife conflicts.
Animal control officers removed three raccoons from the attic.
The role combines public safety with animal welfare.
