After questions were raised about the location of 318 small animals transferred from the Humane Society in San Diego to Tucson, the CEO of HSSAZ tells ABC 10News the animals are all safe.
SAN DIEGO — More than 250 animals that had been sent from the San Diego Humane Society to the Humane Society of Southern Arizona have been adopted, and the remaining animals are at a rescue organization in the Phoenix area, according to HSSAZ CEO Steve Farley. His answer comes after multiple people in both San Diego and Tucson reached out to ABC 10News with concerns about not seeing the animals publicly put up for adoption.
The San Diego Humane Society acknowledged receiving numerous inquiries about the status of the animals since their transfer due to over-capacity conditions earlier in August. She says she had been in touch with rescue organizations across the state and that none of them had heard of where the 318 rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and rats had gone.
