Service Description: The Isle of Wight Council will arrange for the removal of large and domestic dead animals from all publicly accessible areas. We do not remove small animals such as rabbits, birds, vermin that do not pose a danger/hazard to pedestrians or road users.
Also known as:- Dead Animals
Answer: If one of the following animals are killed on a highway, we will pick up cats/kittens, dogs, foxes, badgers and swans but will not pick up rats, ferrets, birds, pheasants or squirrels. Cats and dogs will be collected and taken to Pets at Rest who will scan the animal and contact the owner, if it is chipped. Please note that dead animals will not be collected from private / unadopted roads.
