Animal control officers enforce “State and City ordinances dealing with the care, treatment, licensing, and impounding of animals in an assigned area of the City.” Animal control officers may not be Humane Officers. spcaLA does not employ animal control officers. The duties of an animal control officer can be reviewed in detail in California Penal Code Section 830.9.
