Report a dead animal


If you find a dead animal on public land, report it using our online form. We will investigate within 7 working days of receiving your report.

We will scan dead cats and dogs and try to contact the owner if we find a microchip.

Dead animals on private land are the responsibility of the landowner or tenant.

Dead wild birds

You should report dead wild birds to the government instead of to us. They might collect them to test for bird flu.

Do not touch dead wild birds.
