Occasionally the animal cops are called in on an animal which looks to be in deplorable condition/starved/what-have-you, but the animal is actually suffering from some sort of chronic illness and is under veterinary management. Two additional shows not based in the US include Animal Cops: South Africa (2007-2008) and Scottish SPCA: On the Wildside (2009-). Animal Planet Heroes: Phoenix (later known as Animal Cops: Phoenix) (2006-09, 2016-18). Replaced by Animal Cops: Miami (2010-2011).
Animal Precinct (2001-2008) - the original show. For example, Animal Cops Houston likes to show horse cases, Miami Animal Police likes cases with alligators and other exotic animals, and Animal Cops Detroit likes dogfighting busts.Īs of recently, a few of these have gone off air and the name has been changed to Pound Patrol. Given the biodiversity of the USA, and the differences in State and County laws regarding animal husbandry and ownership, different types of cases are depicted. The only real difference from show to show is the part of the US where it is set. In the event of animal cruelty or neglect sometimes courtroom proceedings are also included. They all focus on American animal cruelty field agents or police, and the vets and evaluators of a rescue center.

This works because it is a non-fiction series focusing on animal rescue and, to some extent, True Crime when cruelty prosecutions are involved. In other words several different (but in this case, very similar) shows rotate in the same time slot.
Animal Planet Heroes is a set of so called "Wheel Series" airing on Animal Planet.
