on a dog like that” Similar incidents are more frequent because of the increase in Cache Valley's population Hester speculated In spite county's best efforts to save every animal and find good homes for them through die Humane Society at least SO percent of them are euthanized he said “It’s two or three times more common now than it was years ago” Hester said “The pound overflows constantly” As for ritualistic animal abuse Sheriff’s Lt Von Williamson said evidence of it is practically nonexistent in Cache County But if such acts were detect- Animals said the dog had been tied to the bumper of a truck and accidentally dragged for several blocks before the driver discovered it and tossed it behind the building When it was discovered by Grain Growers employee Marshal Owens the dog was suffering Determining die animal wu too far gone to save Owens shot it with a pistol Preston of-th- Continued (him Page i 1 said A large part of Hester's job is to filter out the valid complaints of animal abuse from the unfounded ones “There are people that love animals so much” Hester said “that they rule with their hearts instead of their heads” All too often though animals do need protection he said High temperatures make this a peak season for reports of neglect as concerned neighbors cite lack of food water and shelter for nearby animals Another sad and frequent occurrence is people abandoning pets when they move Hester said he received a call from an Amalga man who told him someone had driven by his house at about 60 mph and tossed a puppy out of the window Other reports like a man beating his dog woe frustrating for Hester because he lacked physical evidence to prosecute and ftirther he couldn’t comprehend the man's behavior “I think sometimes they're just psychotic” he said “They've got to have some mental problems to ed he said the 22-cali- police officers said the original incident looked accidental but die driver’s behavior became crimi- nal when he dumped the mutilated animal behind the building McKenzie said Franklin County has prosecuted cases of starvation when people have left their horses out all winter without any hay ft is a hard case to prove he explained because the interpretation of adequate feeding varies with each individual One person may say the animal is starving but another may claim it does the animal good to follow its instinct and forage through the snow for buried grass Chief Deputy Dave Ftyar said the Frimklin County Sheriff’s Department once took a veterinarian out to investigate a complaint id hone starvation but the reports were unfounded as the animals didn't meet the criteria even though they were skin and bones agency would pursue criminal charges Franklin County prosecuting attorney Jay McKenzie said Idaho law covers two kinds of animal abuse: neglect and egregious cruelty to animals Both are hard to prove in court he said Egregious behavior includes intentional physical abuse such as kicking or beating an animal Proof of intent and physical evidence are key components to conviction in cases like this Just last week Preston Police Officers Mark Beckstead and Terry Harris investigated a report of a dog barely alive found behind Franklin County Grain Growers on South State Street Witnesses Leslie Alldredge who is in charge of animal problems in Logan said many of the calls she responds to are for stray animals that accidentally get loose In many cases id animal neglect she said people are educable and will take the necessary measures to provide for their pets If not die said the animal is removed and the owner slapped with a citation The burden of proof in a case of animal abuse as in virtually all legal action is on the prosecution Prosecution is most likely to be sueceuftil if witnesses will testify about what they’ve seen particu- larly if they have pictures to substantiate their claims The first thing a witness should do is note a description of whoever did the abusing Hester said Secondary information includes a license plate number and vehicle description With a quick call to the animal control specialist he said the ball is rolling and the Utah Humane Society will be called in “They can actually make a real good stink with their interstate network” he said “You can’t prosecute every one of the individuals but if their name is on everybody’s lips they're going to be real careful Even if we can’t positively identify them we can put tiie fear erf drily in them” i Facility Continued from Page 3 facility which might not leave i visitors with a good first impression of Cache County But Weston said the proposed bubble “is not a structure” and that the portable restrooms he would have used were far more elaborate than typical outhouselike portable toilets He also said developing a full master plan for development at the resort is a costly venture and that he had hoped to move ahead with the temporary structure first He also said he was disgusted that the Best Western sign kept coming up in discussions In IW Sherwood Hills erected the ht lighted sign in Wcllsville Canyon without get- ting necessary permits from the county so county
