N.C. counties say PETA euthanizes animals
June 23, 2005
NORFOLK, Va. --Two North Carolina counties have stopped turning over
shelter
animals to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, saying they were
surprised the group euthanized cats and dogs instead of trying to find
them
homes.
The Bertie County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously Monday to cut
all
ties to PETA, despite a written apology from its president. County
Manager
Zee Lamb said he believed euthanasia would be only a last resort for
cats
and dogs that were not adoptable.
Northampton County health director Sue Gay said she assumed the same.
The
counties learned that most animals instead had been euthanized after two
PETA workers were arrested and charged with dumping dead animals in a
shopping center's garbage bins.
Northampton County decided last week to stop working with PETA until the
criminal cases against the two are resolved.
Since 2001, PETA has taken animals from shelters in Bertie, Hertford and
Northampton counties and the town of Windsor.
Documents filed with the state of Virginia showed that PETA euthanized
about
6,100 domestic animals from 2001-03. Daphna Nachminovitch, director of
PETA's domestic animal and wildlife department, said she didn't know how
many were from North Carolina.
"Did we euthanize some animals who could have been adopted? Maybe,"
Nachminovitch said. "The point is that good homes are few and far
between.
Our aim here was to stop them from dying an agonizing death."
PETA said it offered to take stray animals and euthanize them by
fast-acting
injection because it considers that more humane than gassing or shooting
them.
The organization has stayed in touch with Bertie and Northampton
officials
in hopes of mending the relationships, Nachminovitch said.
The two workers arrested last week, Adria Joy Hinkle, 27, of Norfolk,
Va.,
and Andrew Benjamin Cook, 24, of Virginia Beach, Va., have a court
hearing
July 19 on charges of animal cruelty, disposal of dead animals and
trespassing.
Can't argue about the facts. Everyone already knows all county
workers
are democrats, and Hinkle and Cook are obviously democratic names. Keep
up
the great work and let's increase those med doses.
