Letter: Horrendous animal cruelty

Published: 04-05-2024 11:33 AM

Recently, a 4-year-old male bobcat who lives on our property came crawling to our home. He was severely injured. We managed to trap him, and sent him to Tufts in Grafton with help of a fabulous wildlife rehab contact.

We learned he had been shot, and afterwards abused and suffered four broken ribs, missing teeth, compound elbow fracture and more. The vets, wildlife rehabilitators and of course we cried when we had to put him down.What kind of person do we have living among us who is capable of doing such a thing?
