Yuma Animal Protection and Reporting assists local agencies in protecting animals from abuse
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - Unlike crimes against people, crimes against animals aren t compiled. So, there s no telling if animal abuse is on the rise, or on the decline.
But, animal advocates like the ones in the Yuma Animal Protection and Reporting group say one case is too many. Members of YAPAR have taken it upon themselves to be a point-of-contact when someone suspects animal abuse.
In most cases they respond to missing pets and use their social media network to create a net to find them. But, they will respond to reports of animal abuse.
