This is one of the most disturbing and heartbreaking articles I've read. And coupled with photos of how the van was stacked, all of those animals were COOKING.
What a disastrous failure on the part of these three employees and PIN. Protocol should have dictated that with 27 animals, the larger van must be used and one of the employees shouldn't have gone on the trip.
I hope this story stays with all of them as they attempt to move into new animal-based organizations. A horror story.

@Generationally challenged - Unfortunately the leadership at the top is more focused on their image rather than actually doing good for the animals.

Heckity is right, this was awful. What were those two experienced employees thinking? How could they conduct a rescue run like this?

I am shocked and baffled at the cruelty shown by people who were entrusted with the care and safety of these poor creatures. A real tragedy, and I hope that it is one from which some valuable lessons are learned and put into practice. It seems a sad truth that "Some people should never have children", and that Some People Should Never Be Entrusted with The Care of Animals.
