The organizers of this partnership have stated that animal cruelty is a crime regardless of if the victim is a pet or farm animal. 

You’ll now be able to anonymously report these crimes with the possibility of being eligible for a cash reward of up to $5,000. 

To report animal abuse, all you need to do is visit the Crime Stoppers website or call 1(800)222-8477.
