SUMMARY

The PRCA and its members are committed to promoting the proper care and treatment of the animals used in rodeo. As an association, the PRCA has been very proactive in establishing rules and regulations governing animal welfare and in creating veterinary advisory groups to assist in the association’s efforts in this important area.

The PRCA prides itself on implementing the highest standards for treatment of rodeo livestock in the business, as well as encouraging other rodeo associations to adopt similar standards. The animals involved in PRCA-sanctioned events are afforded proper care and treatment through a comprehensive, award-winning animal welfare program and the enforcement of animal-related rules and regulations.
