When any animal is impounded, the poundmaster shall immediately notify the owner thereof, if known to them. If said animal is not reclaimed within five days after such notice is given, or if the owner is unknown within five days after impounding, the poundmaster shall proceed to sell the same to whomever shall have expressed a willingness to buy. In case there is no bidder for such animal, the poundmaster shall proceed to destroy the same, without unnecessary cruelty, and shall dispose of the carcass in such manner as may be directed by the Health Department.
