Sick, Sick, Sick

I didn't see where it was, but there has been some serious problems going on. ANIMAL CRUELTY! It was somewhere in the Pennsylvania and New Jersey area, because that is what the news covers in my area. An old adandoned house that cannot be seen by the road is an animal torture chamber. The police took out of the house 9 pit bulls, over 100 chickens, a hawk, white pigeons by the dozens, many endangered birds, and so many more.

They were all kept in small wire crates, or loose on the concrete yard. They had found a small enclosure with blood spattered walls---a cockfighting arena (most of the chickens were roosters). There was another enclosure for pitbull fighting. The pitbulls were badly damaged. The hawk was sick.

The white pigeons looked they had rolled around in ashes because they turned a grayish black. The endangered birds were trapped and kept as pets. This disgusts me. If you live in South Jersey and want to hear more of the story, tune in at 6:00 pm to the Channel 6 Action News. I hope whoever did this goes to jail for a very long time

I also wish people who do this would experiece the pain that the animals are put through, and the sick environment that they lived in.

Re: Sick, Sick, Sick

The pitbulls are being trained to act right so they can be rehomed, but the rest have to be euthanized. I feel so bad. Right now I am searching for more info on it.

Re: Sick, Sick, Sick

Found it: 6abc.com: Animal house busted in Hunting Park 3/21/08

EDITED TO ADD: There is also a video. I can't watch it since I have no speakers and I lost my earphones, but everyone else probably can!
