Hit and run of any animal equals animal cruelty

The Issue

Multiple of animals are being hit by vehicles and left to die alone and scared, just like our loved family pet Jackson. Let’s make a difference and change our laws. If an animal is hit it must be reported to the appropriate authorities, failure to stop and make a report will result in animal cruelty charges. We are their voice and protectors. We can make a difference and help the injured pet & allow  owners to find closure. 

State Ordinance currently states that you must stop however that is not being followed through. Animal cruelty charges should be enforced if an animal is left to die on their own without reporting.
