Living in Las Vegas is a wild ride, and sometimes, that wildness spills over into the four-legged variety. Whether you've encountered a rogue pool float commandeered by a mischievous raccoon, or a chorus line of stray cats serenading you at dawn, knowing how to contact Animal Control is key.

Las Vegas Animal Control, also known as Clark County Animal Protection Services, is there to wrangle the critters causing chaos and ensure the safety of both humans and animals. So, if you find yourself in any of these situations:
- A pack of coyotes are holding an impromptu poker game in your backyard (probably bluffing, but still unnerving).
- A squirrel with a Napoleon complex is trying to mount your prized show poodle.
- You suspect a case of avian espionage – a particularly shifty-looking pigeon keeps staring at you through your window. (Just kidding... maybe.)
Fear not! Here's how to get in touch with these brave animal ambassadors:
QuickTip: Stop scrolling, read carefully here.
- Dial it Up: Reach out to Animal Control directly at (702) 455-7710.
- Email Animal Whisperers Anonymous (sort of): If you prefer the digital route, you can send an email to AnimalProtectionServicesInfo@clarkcountyNV.gov.
Remember: The more details you can provide about the furry (or feathery) friend in need, the better.
