Obviously the animal control in my area isn't even trained to take care of dogs that run around my neighborhood unleashed and not under control. Even though there is a leash law in CA. I even had a sherrif call me a liar and threaten to take me to jail when my fiance was almost attacked by them. Way to serve and protect officer!
The thing is there is not much an Officer can do about wild and exotic animals. It is so rare that an animal such as a Chimpanzee or a Kangaroo would be loose on the streets that knowledge learned in a 3 week training course would be remembered. Or that need equipment will be available.
I know a few animal control officers, none are really trained period let alone in exotics. This is unfortunately true of the proffession in most areas around the country, it simply does not pay enough for anyone with education within the animal field to wish to go into it.
