You do know there are hundreds of innocent Ukrainians killed every day by Russia?
Where is the outrage for that? SMH
Yet Diddy gets to abuse for 30 years, and they do nothing.

Who complained?
Exotic pet owners get their beloved and well cared for pets seized (and more often than not, brutally euthanized) from them almost daily while “animal lovers” cheer on. This is nothing new. The vilification of exotic pet ownership needs to end. Raising a harmless squirrel you rescued is not a crime.
Policing what harmless pets people own is the pinnacle of wasted resources, and in the case of people like Peanut’s owner who rescued him from the wild, it’s a spit in the face.
The government thinks it’s more humane for hunters to shoot and kill these animals than it is to raise orphaned ones and care for them. They think it’s more humane for fur farms to torture foxes and mink than it is for people to keep them as pets. And worst of all? They’ll tell you you’re the morally bankrupt one because “exotic pets are bad”.
It’s all so tiresome.
I'm so so sorry. It's breaking my heart. So many animals are gonna be affected by this on their farm. Do good people just do good
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
There is evil in this world.
They had no sign of rabies or bitten anyone, if he bit, then he was so scared of how he was being handled! Sue, sue,sue!
Really New York? you will let robbers and murders go free but not
a squirrel?!?!?!?! RIP little guy😢💔
Its seems they did it to prove they could.
The only thing I can see so far they might have done wrong is the habituation of a raccoon they're supposed to be releasing to the wild. Did they not have a rehabber's license? I feel very sorry for those animals. It must have been terrifying for them to be taken from their happy place and killed.
Why? Is it because of danger to humans (illness) I just don’t understand why
Omg I'm so sad. How cruel
I'm so sorry .this is so heartbreaking.
How cruel he didn't harm or hurt anyone
Uh!!! I would have taken them to another state asap….please come to Texas!
Government abuse! That animal caused no harm in that man’s home!!! 👎🤬🤬🤬
