A loose animal is causing a disturbance and needs to be reported.

• A. 487 Theft
• B. 601 Missing person
• C. 601J Missing Juvenile
• D. 651 Loose animals

Answer: (D)

Classifying incidents by type ensures the right response and resource allocation. When an animal is loose and causing a disturbance, it fits under an animal problem rather than a theft or a missing-person case. The code for Loose animals signals animal control to respond and manage containment, address public safety, and handle the animal appropriately. The other options describe theft or missing persons, which do not match an animal disturbance. So report it as a Loose animals incident.
