County Animal Response Team                
Providing Prevention, Preparedness, Response, and Recovery for Animal Emergencies

The purpose of the Clearfield County Animal Response Team is to provide a team of trained members to support preparedness, prevention, response, and recovery for emergencies affecting animals, and to act as a resource for the Clearfield County Department of Emergency Management (EMA) and the Pennsylvania State Animal Response Team (PASART) when animals are involved in emergencies.
The goals of the Clearfield CART are coordinated with those of PASART and are as follows:
  • To facilitate a prompt, effective response to any emergency affecting animals in the County of Clearfield (and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania)
  • To decrease the health and safety threat to humans and animals
  • To minimize the economic impact of emergencies affecting animals
  • To prevent or decrease the spread of disease
  • To minimize animal and human suffering during emergencies affecting animals
  • To educate the public on topics related to animals
  •  
    ABOUT CART: 

    WHAT WE DO:

    We will respond to incidents that involve domestic or agricultural animals in an emergency situation. We must be deployed by County Emergency Management. Examples include (but aren't limited to):

  • Relocation of family pets due to fire, storm, flood, or other natural disaster.
  • Assistance in the evacuation of families that include pets in a disaster situation.
  • Providing temporary shelter for displaced animals due to disaster situations.
  • Response to a traffic accident involving livestock.
  • Livestock round-up when loose animals present a hazard.

    When deployed we should have the following information:

  • -Incident Location
  • -Staging Area
  • -Type and number of animals involved.
  • -Is the owner on scene?
  • -What specifically needs to be done?

    WHAT WE DON'T DO:

    Clearfield CART is not the primary agency for incidents involving stray or wild animals or situations that fall under the jurisdiction of humane officers, law enforcement or the PA Game Commission, although these agencies may call on us for assistance if necessary.
