The appellant appealed the removal of a calf and the associated statement of account under the Provincial Animal Welfare Services Act, 2019.
The Animal Care Review Board found that the calf was in distress due to a colostrum deficiency and inappropriate living conditions, justifying its removal.
The Board declined to return the calf to the appellant, finding that doing so would place the animal in distress given the appellant's failure to acknowledge the calf's health issues or improve its living conditions.
The statement of account for veterinary and boarding fees was confirmed as reasonable.
