When accounting for the care of animals and their owners, damage assessment also includes:
- Number of livestock that have been injured or killed.
- Number of livestock that need cages or fencing.
- Damage to animal-related businesses, such as veterinary practices, animal shelters, boarding and grooming facilities, and farms.
Photographs and videos of damage can be used effectively for this purpose. Expenditure records related to activation of the EOC, damage assessment, and other operational costs should be compiled in standardized reports.
