The numbers reported to the State are substantially larger than those posted on the website for Riverside County Animal Services, http://www.rcdas.org/stats.htm. When there is a conflict, NAIA will post the numbers from the State. The figures for "All Contract Cities & Unincorporated Areas" were switched with "Unincorporated Areas" for November 2006. When contacted by email Riverside County Animal Services concurred that an error had been made and corrected the website. It is impossible to discern the cause for the disparity in the reported numbers.
