| 29124 | 98461900ef63f05e | 3.131(a) | 1 | Sanitation. | Although sanitation at the facility has greatly improved, there are several areas that still need attention. The Patagonian cavy enclosure has a mild amount of fecal matter present and the shelter box contains old, dirty hay from the winter. There is still debris including old hay and Styrofoam pieces present in the enclosure housing two fennec foxes. Additionally, at least three outdoor metal enclosures have wire walls with large amounts of trapped fur and cob/dustwebs. Infrequent cleaning and sanitation of housing facilities exposes the animals to unnecessary disease hazards, odors, insects and pests. Correct by ensuring that all enclosures are being cleaned on a routine basis and as often as necessary to minimize disease hazards and satisfy acceptable cleanliness standards. This inspection and exit interview were conducted with the facility representative. Additional Inspectors: Rachel Perez-Baum, VETERINARY MEDICAL OFFICEREnd Section |
