Sheriff’s Office Looking For Livestock Officer
September 18, 2009
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office is accepting bids for its livestock control officer position.
The livestock officer is responsible for “controlling and apprehending all livestock and strays on the public rights-of-way within Escambia County, Florida, and those found or reported roaming at large within said county,” according to bid documents. The officer will also provide food, board and veterinary care for impounded livestock. The livestock officer is also responsible for removing all dead livestock and large animals from the public rights-of-way.
The person selected will be required to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They must respond to calls or pages within 15 minutes and respond to the actually animal incident within 30 minutes. The sheriff’s office provides truck and livestock trailer for the officer’s use.

Wonderful idea, but whomever came up with the idea you can drive to the animal incident within 30 minutes must have never driven north of 9 mile road.
You can not drive from Pensacola to Walnut Hill within 30 minutes, if you do you are not driving the speed limits.
It’s about time! The livestock officer that the SO uses now is MIA for most calls.
