The sterilization of pets in Quintana Roo could be mandatory; this according to an initiative that was presented to the state Congress
Why would pet sterilization be mandatory in Quintana Roo?
Maritza Basurto Basurto, independent deputy, presented an initiative that seeks to reform the entity’s animal protection law. It includes the idea of making pet sterilization mandatory in Quintana Roo.
According to the document consulted on the official website of the state Congress, the modifications are aimed at ensuring that dogs, cats and other domestic species receive the necessary care for their well-being.
In turn, this measure would contribute to reducing the high rates of animal abuse and abandonment, which also generates sources of disease transmission to humans and other species.
In search of dignified treatment of animals
The mandatory sterilization of pets in Quintana Roo is not the only initiative that the independent representative Maritza Basurto Basurto has presented before the state Congress. The official website of the entity’s legislative branch shows other reform projects of the official.
One of them is to call responsible guardians to all those people who decide to have a pet among their family members, with which they must have obligations such as registration with a control system that would be in the power of the state authorities.
