NEWS

We have recently put into use a new camera for capturing pictures of wildlife. It is utilized under different circumstances and is a great asset for investigating a wide variety of animal complaints. Some of the pictures captured are shown below.

Animals recovered by the Animal Control are pictured on http://www.petfinder.org/shelters/CT197.html

Anyone wishing to report a dead animal on the side of the road should call the Fairfield Police Department at 203-254-4800.

If you witness a wild animal that appears to be rabid, call the Fairfield Police Department at 203-254-4800.
