Large Animal Disaster Committee

The Broward County Large Animal Disaster Planning Committee (LADC), a part of Broward County's overall emergency planning effort, is asking all County horse owners to register their animals. This registration effort will be plotted on a GIS system to assist the LADC to better direct their resources and efforts in the event of a disaster. The second reason for registering your animals is to assist in the return of the animals in the event that they get loose in an emergency situation and to facilitate their return to you.

Registering your animals does not mean that you should not identify them clearly prior to a hurricane or other threatened emergency. You still will need to spray paint your telephone number on your horse, and add other previously suggested identification formats.
