Many of the creatures are thought to have starved before being thrown in.


Some of the ferrets were found alive and eating a dead cat in a cage, said a spokeswoman for Secret World wildlife rescue centre in East Huntspill – where surviving animals have been taken.


‘It was quite sickening. They had been left to die,’ she added.

OMG that is disgusting ... this has really shocked me " Why would people do that " shocking !!!!!

It is very shocking to read more incidents like this as well - far too many x

thats horrible..how can anyone do that..really don't know how they sleep at night

That is totally disgusting. How anybody could do anything like that is beyond me. It makes me sick. It's heartbreaking. What makes a person do something like that? I just don't get it. I'd love to see the 'person/people' if you can call them human even, get caught and pay a very high price for doing that.

this is well and truly sickening... what hell is the matter with people? tempted to go on a rant... now isnt the time or place though xxx

This is sooo sad, made me feel sick to the stomache! How and why could someone do that! x

There are no apt words for this.

It's too vile.
