SEOUL — A growing number of people are calling for punishment for the leader of a South Korean animal rights group on Sunday after she was reported to have put down hundreds of rescued dogs.
Park So-yeon, a director of the animal rights group CARE, has put down more than 230 of the dogs her organization “rescued” between 2015 and September last year, according to a news report Friday. A former staff member at CARE revealed that Park had ordered her to do so due to a shortage of space in the shelter.
“Dogs were put down not for legitimate reasons such as incurable illnesses or aggressive behavior, but they were put down because the shelter lacked space,” the ex-staff member was quoted as saying.
