U.S. Government Raids Animal Rescue Nonprofit with Search Warrant, Euthanizes Seized Squirrel and Raccoon
Nov 2, 2024, 03:29 PM
The U.S. government conducted a raid on the home of a couple who run an animal rescue nonprofit. The raid, executed with a search warrant, was carried out to seize a squirrel and a raccoon that the couple had been caring for over seven years. Following the seizure, both animals were euthanized by the authorities. The government action was reportedly prompted by complaints from internet busybodies that the couple owned the squirrel without a proper license.
