100+ dead dogs found at California rescue amid animal cruelty investigation

Humboldt County Sheriff's Office investigators unearthed 117 dog bodies, 21 dog skulls, and hundreds of bones at a self-described no-kill animal sanctuary in Northern California. This discovery occurred after months of investigation into animal cruelty at the rescue facility. Deputies described the excavation site as a horrific scene. The operation involved days of turning over soil on the grounds to recover the remains as part of the ongoing criminal probe into the sanctuary.
