Dozens of charges laid against Ontario’s largest raccoon rescue in Kawartha Lakes
Description
February 27, 2024
After more than 80 raccoons were seized from what was the province's largest raccoon rescue in the City of Kawartha Lakes and euthanized, the owners of Mally's Third Chance are now facing dozens of charges. Germain Ma speaks to one of them.
UPDATE: The province released the following statement after deadline:
The Ministry has laid charge under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act, including violations of conditions of the authorization that the wildlife custodian was operating under. The investigation remains ongoing.
Conditions on a wildlife custodian focus on proper care of wildlife and to minimize the risks associated with sick wildlife. Wildlife disease can spread quickly and, in some cases, may not be treatable in wildlife and/or pose serious public health concerns through transmission to humans or domestic animals and other wildlife.
The next appearance in this case is expected to be held on April 23, 2024.
