NOT REAL NEWS: California shelter won’t euthanize animals

Associated Press  

A San Bernardino animal shelter is not planning to euthanize more than 100 animals if they are not adopted by the end of Tuesday as posts being shared widely on social media suggest. Unadopted animals — about 40 cats, 60 dogs and three pigs as of Tuesday morning — will continue to be housed there, Sadie Albers, a public information office for the San Bernardino Police Department told The Associated Press. She said callers from across the U.S. have contacted city staff, upset about the false social media reports claiming that the shelter planned to euthanize all of its animals on May 7. Albers said the San Bernardino shelter needs significant upgrades, including air conditioning and electrical updates to install machine washing units, that the city cannot afford to make.
