Which code covers rescuing a large animal such as a horse or livestock?

• A. Large Animal Rescue
• B. Mailbox Fire
• C. Lift Assist
• D. Missing Person

Answer: (A)

This item tests recognizing the dispatch code that signals rescuing large animals. When responders are called for a horse or other livestock in trouble, the code for Large Animal Rescue is used to indicate that specialized handling and equipment are needed, and that animal control, trained handlers, and possibly veterinary support should be mobilized. This code helps ensure the right resources—like animal handling gear, appropriate restraints, and coordination with facilities or veterinarians—arrive quickly and safely. The other options describe incidents unrelated to animal rescue: a mailbox fire is a small fire at a mailbox, lift assist is about helping a person get up or move something, and missing person refers to locating a person who is lost, not an animal.
