Confronting
Animal Cruelty: As animal cruelty laws begin to
evolve at the state and federal levels, the burden to
report, investigate and prosecute crimes against animals
depends on public participation in the criminal justice
system. As people who care about animals, how do we
support law enforcement officers and prosecutors who
are committed to cracking down on animal cruelty? What
can animal advocates do to help the system work better?
