A person whose vehicle causes injury or death to a domestic animal in the incorporated limits of the town shall stop at once, and assess the extent of the injury to the extent that it is safe to do so. The person shall immediately notify the animal’s owner, if known, or the animal care and control shelter, either directly or through a local law enforcement agency. The notice shall include a description of the animal struck, the location of the incident, a description of the condition of the animal, and if it can be safely ascertained, the rabies tag number of the animal. The person shall not be required to report his or her name, as the primary purpose of this requirement is to aid the stricken animal and notify its owner, if any.
