What counts as animals & pests: Complaints about loose, injured, or dead animals on public property; dog bites; wildlife concerns (coyotes, raccoons); and rodent or pest sightings.
In St. Louis’s raw 311 feed, the following 1 service_type roll into animals & pests:
- Stray Dog At Large

)Analyst tip: Austin prefixes everything 'Animal Protection - ...'. Calgary uses 'AS -' for animal services and also files rodent calls under 'Parks - Wildlife Management'.
