FREE HELP: Charleston Police Department: (304) 348-6400

The Charleston Police Department does not typically handle animal complaints. Those are under the jurisdiction of the Kanawha County Animal Control at 304-342-1576. But from time to time, in certain emergency situations, the police might help. But it's not being a good citizen to call the police about a wild animal problem. That is not the intended purpose of the Charleston police department. But if you're broke and desperate and you're used to calling the police to solve your problems for you, I guess no one can stop you. But you'd be better off simply leaving the animal alone, or solving the problem yourself, or using any of the other free Charleston resources to help. click here for FREE Charleston animal removal resources that aren't the police, such as the Kanawha County animal services, or the West Virginia Wildlife Commission, or a Charleston Wildlife Rehabilitation clinic.
