Dead animal removal

The council will remove dead wild animals from public areas and roads in the Watford area.

Our responsibilities only include the removal of certain dead animals from public areas. This includes dead badgers, foxes and larger animals, such as deer. Please note we do not  arrange for the removal of dead domestic pets.

When you report a dead animal to us please ensure we have the following information:

  • location (e.g. an adjacent/nearby address) of the dead animal;
  • brief details of the animal, such as type, colour, size; and
  • the time at which you saw the animal.

You can now report a dead animal online or you can call us on tel: 01923 235946 to report a dead animal or for more information.
