Animal Protection and Health Inspection Center

Based on the Organization Regulations of Taiwan Livestock Disease Control Centers, Taichung City Animal Protection and Health Inspection Center was established to prevent livestock epidemics from breaking out and spreading. In recent years, the high population density in Taichung, the dramatic growth of pet-keeping, and the increasing demand for livestock products and protein have made the epidemic prevention and livestock product examination urgent missions to achieve.

Recently, Foot-and-Mouth Disease has greatly endangered economic animals, such as swine's and herbivores, and made a tremendous loss to the breeders. Thus, extinguishment of the epidemic is also regarded as an important task to us.

After the Animal Protection Act was promulgated, animal protection and pet registration have also become part of our tasks which all our staff will strive to accomplish.
