  appropriate action so that the animal may have necessary attention,  and
  shall  also  promptly  report  the  matter  to  such owner, custodian or
  officer (or if no one of such has been located, then to a police officer
  of some other nearby community),  exhibiting  his  or  her  license  and
  insurance  identification  card  for  such  vehicle,  when  such card is
