Animal Planet Heroes is a set of so called "Wheel Series" airing on Animal Planet. In other words several different (but in this case, very similar) shows rotate in the same time slot. This works because it is a non-fiction series focusing on animal rescue and, to some extent, True Crime when cruelty prosecutions are involved.They all focus on American animal cruelty field agents or police, and the vets and evaluators of a rescue center. In the event of animal cruelty or neglect sometimes courtroom proceedings are also included. The only real difference from show to show is the part of the US where it is set. Given the biodiversity of the USA, and the differences in State and County laws regarding animal husbandry and ownership, different types of cases are depicted. For example, Animal Cops Houston likes to show horse cases, Miami Animal Police likes cases with alligators and other exotic animals, and Animal Cops Detroit likes dogfighting busts.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })As of recently, a few of these have gone off air and the name has been changed to Pound Patrol.The series are: Animal Precinct (2001-2008) - the original show. Set in New York City. Animal Cops: Detroit (2002-2008) Animal Cops: Houston (2003-2012, 2014-2015) Miami Animal Police (2004-2007). Replaced by Animal Cops: Miami (2010-2011). Animal Cops: San Francisco (2005-06) Animal Planet Heroes: Phoenix (later known as Animal Cops: Phoenix) (2006-09, 2016-18) Animal Cops: Philadelphia (2009-10)Two additional shows not based in the US include Animal Cops: South Africa (2007-2008) and Scottish SPCA: On the Wildside (2009-). | |

Abuse Mistake | |
| Animal Planet Heroes / int_3cc3ed1d | comment |
Abuse Mistake: Occasionally the animal cops are called in on an animal which looks to be in deplorable condition/starved/what-have-you, but the animal is actually suffering from some sort of chronic illness and is under veterinary management. (Hyperthyroid cats are prime suspects for this; their overactive metabolisms mean that they are rail-thin and look as though they're not being fed, when in fact they are.) Unsurprisingly, though, most of these instances don't appear onscreen due to lack of drama potential, usually only showing up as a breather from particularly depressing cases just so viewers have something to feel better about at the end of the episode. One such instance of it happening at the end was a cop called because a woman supposedly had a ton of dogs with skin conditions whose fur was falling out. They turned out to be healthy Chinese Crested dogs, who are naturally hairless except for their heads, feet, and tails.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
