WHAT TO DO IF THE ANIMAL IS ALIVE???? The following tips are geared towards domestic animals, which are accustomed to human contact. ***An injured animal will be afraid, and thusly aggressive. So, be sure your approach is calm, and please speak softly......... ***A blanket is a useful tool, in that it will allow you to remove the animal from the road, and help to prevent shock if the animal's injuries are severe... ***If the animal is unconscious but breathing, it will be easier to move from the road, but keep a watchful eye for signs of waking up.............. ***Tuck the blanket or raincoat,or rag whatever your using, in tight along the animals side.......Then gently turn the animal onto it's side so it is laying on the blanket.....Then gently pull the blanket with the animal laying on it...to the side of the road. ***Remember, again to check for a collar and possibly an owners telephone number...A call only takes a minute, and I can guarantee the owner's will be grateful.........................................
If you are willing to do this much for an animal after hitting it...You will have done your part...Ideally, the animal SHOULD be taken to the nearest VET for life saving emergency assistance...But, in lieu of this, You will have helped right a wrong................................. Recently it was brought to my attention, that I should address those individuals who deliberately swerve to hit and kill an animal.....The only thing I can say about these individuals is this............. ****The profiling of most known serial killers states that these unfortunate individuals have killed animals in their younger lives....................... ****Any individual who can take a life and find humor or pleasure from it, are in need of psychiatric help...ASAP ****Anyone seeing this kind of behavior is charged with obtaining the license plate of that vehicle and reporting it to the proper authorities............... ****All life is PRECIOUS, even the lives of the poor slobs who would do something like that to an innocent animal. They just need to spend their lives somewhere where they can't hurt the rest of us....... Hope this page has helped in some small way.....Let's keep the animals safe...God would want it that way.........EVOLVE OR REVOLVE...dmm
