The CEO and Chief Programs Officer of The Humane Society of Southern Arizona have been suspended after an investigation was launched looking into the whereabouts of hundreds of missing animals transported there from San Diego. San Diego Humane Society transported 318 hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs and rats to the Humane Society of Southern Arizona on August 7th to alleviate overcrowding at our local shelters. Of those 318 animals, 250 are unaccounted for. “It would be impossible, literally be impossible to describe how angry, how hurt we are as an organization. We have worked with agencies for decades and have never seen anything along these lines, nor has anyone else in animal welfare,” said Humane Society San Diego Executive Vice President, Brian Daugherty. Daugherty tells CBS 8 that animal welfare groups in Arizona were the first to shine a light on this issue after they called the Humane Society of Southern Arizona to check on the animals, only to learn staff members weren't even aware a large transport had taken place.
