Do you know how to protect your farm animals from risks posed by natural disasters, including collapsed barns, freezing weather, flooding, dehydration, and electrocution?
From barn fires to hazardous materials spills to natural disasters, emergency situations often call for special measures to shelter, care for, or transport farm pets, livestock, and poultry.
Safeguard your animals, your property and your business by taking precautions now, no matter what the risks are in your area.
The Emergency Preparedness for Farm Animals brochure is intended to address interruptions in normal services due to the consequences of natural hazards and emergencies. It does not address animal disease emergencies. For information on prevention, preparation or response to animal disease emergencies contact your veterinarian, your provincial agriculture representative or the local office of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency at www.inspection.gc.ca.
