If the owner does not redeem the animal within three (3) days after impounding, the animal may be redeemed by any other person paying the above fees. Unredeemed animals shall be disposed of as provided by the village board of trustees. All animals which have been impounded under the provisions of this chapter shall be humanely dispatched or disposed of by the animal commissioner, when not redeemed by the owner, after a period of seventy two (72) hours.
