Report Animal Cruelty

We investigate tips of potential animal cruelty and abuse. For animal emergencies, please call our Humane Investigators at 808-356-2250. Animal CrimeStoppers also take anonymous tips and sometimes pay rewards.

If you witness an incident in real-time that poses an immediate threat to public safety or an animal, please call 911 for assistance. For any non-emergency concerns, such as encountering a loose dog in your neighborhood that is not aggressive and poses no threat, or to file a report, please contact our Field Services Dispatch at (808) 356-2250 or complete a Citizen Complaint form below.
