Which entity is funded by taxpayers?

• A. Spay and Neuter/Adoption
• B. Animal Control
• C. Humane Society
• D. Both Humane Society AND Animal Control

Answer: (B)

Public funding comes from taxpayers and supports government services. Animal Control is typically a municipal department within city or county government, funded through taxes and licensing revenues, so it relies on taxpayer funds. In contrast, Spay and Neuter/Adoption programs are usually run by shelters or private nonprofits that rely on donations, grants, and program fees rather than general tax dollars. The Humane Society is a private nonprofit funded by donors and fundraising, not a government budget. So, the entity funded by taxpayers is Animal Control.
