Incidents responded to by the Baton Rouge Animal Control and Rescue Center (ACRC). ACRC is responsible for carrying out duties related to animal-related situations, including: administering the anti-rabies vaccination, licensing, and tag program; investigating animal cruelty incidents; investigating dog fighting; resolving dangerous animal situations; rescuing injured animals; investigating abandoned animal cases; investigating occult, animal sacrifice, and bestiality cases; resolving stray animal situations; enforcing the leash law and owned animal problems; assisting law enforcement with narcotics, evictions, and DWI cases; enforcing barking dog cases; inspecting dog yards/pens; chaining or tethering compliance; assisting animal welfare groups with feral interventions; and conducting educational programs. As many of the incidents included within this data set involve active cases that are currently under investigation and computerized system limitations do not allow for automated screening of open/closed cases, the identity of animal owners is redacted to protect the privacy of the animal owner. Members of the public interested in the identity of a specific incident may contact ACRC directly to inquire about the incident and, if it is closed, ACRC will release a copy of the file to the person requesting it. However, location data regarding where the incident was reported or occurred is included within this data set, which may or may not be the same location as the animal owner's home or property. In addition, to protect the identity of the complainant (person filing the complaint or alerting ACRC to a potential incident), only the complainant's street name is included as part of this data set. Finally, while all incidents are updated on a daily basis, incidents involving animal cruelty are updated based on a rolling 30-day delay to allow for ACRC to investigate the incident and make a determination as to the validity of the cruelty complaint.

Increased public and political attention to animal abuse has led to changes in legislation that recognize animals as sentient beings. Abusing animals is legally classified in Spain as an environmental crime against flora, fauna and protected areas. Consequently, research into human-animal relationships and animal abuse has also increased. Stereotypes about animals influence how humans treat them. The aim of this study is to analyze the similarities and differences of the perceptual spaces that people spontaneously construct when considering the abuse of protected animals, pets and farm animals, and then to compare them with the space of a prototypical environmental crime such as illegal dumping. Participants were 528 men and women aged between 18 and 88 years old, mostly resident in a highly environmentally protected territory. They completed an online questionnaire containing scenarios, based on press releases, of the four categories of environmental crime. Each participant was randomly asked to rate the scenarios from one of these categories in terms of severity, justification, indignation, intentionality, punishment, likelihood of personal intervention and calling the police. The questionnaire also included questions on socio-demographic data and a social desirability scale. Data were analyzed using multidimensional scaling and the results showed that a three-dimension solution was the best for the four perceptual spaces. However, the content, label and order in which each dimension emerged in the shaping of each space varied. Most pet abuse scenarios were perceived as highly reprehensible and deliberate, with the abuse of dogs and cats being more unjustified and deserving personal intervention than of other companion animals. Scenarios involving the abuse of protected and farm animals elicited less consistent reactions, influenced by the perception of their instrumentality for humans, such as for food or profit. The comparison with illegal dumping suggests that animal abuse is an environmental crime, but with specific characteristics. In contrast with other environmental crimes, its victims are sentient beings and the harm they suffer is both observable and immediate. Future research should explore, in diverse samples and territories, the key variables for effective interventions to prevent and control the social problem of animal abuse.

Abstract This study investigates the course of the transformations of violence present in the human-animal relationship in multiple periods of time, using artistic expressions to contribute to this theme. The study uses a multidisciplinary approach from the fields of Arts, History, and Philosophy seeking contributions to the literature on marketing and consumer behavior. Visual critical analysis is the methodology used to analyze six works of art from different historical periods and to understand the human-animal relationship over time. Findings suggest that forms of violence are present in the transforming human-animal relationship. The research challenges the marketing domain of the discussion about this relationship, limited to positive experiences with companion animals; it brings interpretations of the ways of violence in the human-animal relationship over time to understand the meanings and practices of the present; adds elements aimed at discussions and reflections necessary for researchers and marketing professionals, on the human-animal relationship and violence.
