This document discusses lessons learned from animal issues during disasters like Hurricane Katrina:
- Over 600,000 pets died or were abandoned during Katrina due to people refusing to evacuate without them. Coastal zoos and aquariums also suffered heavy damage and loss of collections.
- A pre-Katrina recommendation to leave pets with 3 days of food and water proved inadequate. The PETS Act now requires evacuating pets from disaster areas and providing pet-friendly emergency shelters.
- Animal issues are inextricably linked to people issues during disasters. Emergency management must prepare for and address needs of both. Challenges include animal search and rescue, sheltering, veterinary care, decontamination, and
The Disaster Animal Response Team (DART) aims to:
1) Provide emergency animal sheltering services and assist CERT teams in evacuating household pets during disasters.
2) Expand CERT skills to assist all animals, human and otherwise, to survive disasters through DART training.
3) Respond to animal rescue requests and set up emergency animal shelters near human evacuation centers.
- The document discusses the formation and operations of DART (Disaster Animal Response Team), a volunteer organization that operates under local CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) to provide emergency shelter and care for animals during disasters.
- DART has over 80 trained volunteers in Lamorinda, California and works closely with local animal services and the American Red Cross. DART provides advanced animal sheltering training and has deployed during past fires and floods.
- The document outlines DART's training program, certification process for volunteers, and resources available to help establish new DART teams in other jurisdictions.
This document discusses several key US agencies involved in disaster preparedness and response. It outlines the roles of the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, the Department of Homeland Security Office of Health Affairs, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. These agencies work at the federal, state, and local levels to strengthen national response capabilities through funding, surveillance, research, and organized coordination during public health emergencies and disasters.

The Texas Animal Health Commission (TAHC) is the lead state agency for animal response during disasters. For Hurricane Harvey, TAHC activated the Animal Response Operations Coordination Center (AROCC) to coordinate response efforts. AROCC includes representatives from state, federal, and non-governmental animal organizations. Harvey caused catastrophic flooding across Southeast Texas from heavy rainfall and stalled movement. TAHC and partners sheltered over 7,600 animals and assessed over 37,000 livestock heads, distributing hay and feed. Total agricultural losses from Harvey exceeded $200 million.
Listing a Species as Threatened or Endangeredusfws
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service implements the Endangered Species Act to protect threatened and endangered species. For a species to receive protection under the ESA, it must first be added to the federal lists of threatened or endangered plants and animals. The Service follows a strict listing process that involves reviewing species status, taking public comments, and determining if a species should be listed as threatened or endangered based on the risk of extinction. Once listed, species are protected from harm and recovery plans are developed to conserve the species and their habitats.
The document summarizes information from a presentation on animal sheltering during disasters. It discusses the PETS Act, which requires addressing animal needs during emergencies. It outlines the incident command system used to manage animal friendly shelters and describes shelter setup, intake procedures, veterinary care, security, documentation, and equipment considerations for emergency animal shelters.
The document provides an overview of USDA's roles in emergency response according to the National Response Framework. It discusses the various USDA agencies that are involved in emergency management and outlines their roles. It also summarizes the five training modules that are available, which cover topics like the national response framework, emergency support functions, and the role of extension services.
The AVMA has established several policies and resources to guide the veterinary community on proper waste disposal. These include policies on carcass disposal, risks from animal carcasses during natural disasters, and animal agriculture waste management. The AVMA advocates for safe, environmentally responsible disposal and supports research on disposal methods. It has developed websites with information on federal regulations, state disposal resources, and clinical guidance. The AVMA also engages in advocacy on related issues and regulatory proposals. The goal is to increase awareness of proper waste disposal procedures and their importance.
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) aims to protect natural resources, rural communities, and end hunger in the U.S. The USDA was created in 1862 and has over 105,000 employees and a budget of $132 billion. The USDA is made up of several groups that focus on issues like agriculture, food safety, rural development, and natural resources conservation.

The document discusses the Endangered Species Act and the Fish and Wildlife Service's workload in listing threatened and endangered species. It notes that over 1,500 species are currently listed in the U.S., including 38 in Arkansas. The Service faces a tremendous and increasing workload in reviewing species status and responding to petitions. It is working to improve transparency, incentivize voluntary conservation efforts, and engage states more fully. Proposed regulatory changes include revisions to the petition process and clarifying critical habitat designations. The Service also discusses using 4(d) rules to exempt beneficial activities for threatened species, providing examples for the black pine snake and northern long-eared bat.
The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species is the world's most comprehensive inventory of the global conservation status of biological species. It uses a set of criteria to evaluate the extinction risk of thousands of species and subspecies. According to the Red List, over 37,400 species are currently threatened with extinction, including 41% of amphibians, 26% of mammals, and 14% of birds. The Red List is an important resource for developing conservation policies and priorities to protect biodiversity."
The Animal Agriculture Alliance, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, is a broad based coalition of individual farmers, ranchers, producer organizations, suppliers, packer-processors, scientists, veterinarians and retailers. This slideshow provides a glimpse into the mission and scope of this broad coalition.
This document discusses various topics related to emergency management and disaster response planning, including:
1) Definitions of key terms in emergency management and an overview of the typical phases of emergency management - response, recovery, mitigation and preparedness.
2) Examples of different types of natural and human-caused hazards that require emergency planning, such as diseases, floods, hurricanes, and technological or industrial accidents.
3) The importance of developing comprehensive emergency plans and establishing relationships between organizations and jurisdictions to coordinate response efforts. Preparedness is critical to build disaster-resistant communities.
This is my Grand Rounds for Nationwide Children's Hospital on 9/11/14 at 8am. This talk gives the background of National and Regional Preparedness in Columbus, OH post 9/11.
This dissertation aimed to develop a framework for integrating in situ and ex situ biodiversity data management through the Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS). The author conducted case studies of representative species conservation programs and identified their data needs and current data management practices. Many programs used a combination of databases, documents and media that made data analysis inefficient. The author then aligned the data requirements and tools with ZIMS functionality to illustrate how it could standardize data collection and sharing between conservation partners. While ZIMS currently covers many needs, recommendations were made to further develop its in situ data management capabilities and fully integrate processes between programs.
