English to Italian Medical Livestock / Animal Husbandry

"An animal control officer may be an employee of a municipality (...) charged with the responsibility of responding to calls for service ranging from stray animals to investigations of cruelty to animals and dog fighting, and bringing them to a compound or animal shelter, where the animals are held for a certain time before being returned to their owners, put up for adoption, released back into the wild, or euthanized. "
