Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) member Kevin McDonough holding an 11-foot Burmese python the city shelter received after the snake outgrew its owner. CSEA members across New York State are often called upon to come to the rescue of abused or neglected animals, while at the same time keeping the public safe from wild and feral creatures that pose a threat. As Troy's only Animal Control Officer, McDonough is on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week doing investigative work, including finding owners, issuing tickets and tracking the outcome of the cases in which he is involved. He is part of a county-wide (Renssealer County) task force that is forming to prevent animal abuse.
