REWARD offered in a case of a Eurasian lynx captured after roaming the streets in Central Islip

- New York, USA -


The Suffolk County SPCA said in a press release that they are offering a reward for information leading to a criminal conviction of the person(s) responsible “for owning and endangering the public with a Eurasian lynx.”


The Suffolk County SPCA said that the Eurasian lynx was captured on July 29, 2022, by the Suffolk County Police after roaming the streets in Central Islip for three days.


NBC New York reports that on the morning of Tuesday, July 26, 2022, Ms. Diane Huwer was about to feed her cats when she spotted the feline who looked to be about twice the size of a fox.


According to Long Island Press, Strong Island Animal Rescue captured the male Eurasian lynx and brought him to Sweetbriar Nature Center in Smithtown.


The Suffolk County SPCA explained that Eurasian lynx, as Felidae, “are among numerous dangerous animals listed in State environmental regulations. Possessing them is prohibited in New York State without a special license from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). Releasing animals into the environment is also a violation of the law and can result in arrest and fines.”


The nonprofit further explained that according to Article 26 of the NYS Agriculture and Markets Law, “no person shall knowingly own, possess, harbor any wild animal capable of inflicting bodily harm upon a human being or failing to exercise due care in safeguarding the public.”


If you have any information about this case, please call the Suffolk County SPCA at (631) - 382 - 7722 or NYSDEC Police at (631) - 444 - 0250. Thank you!


The Suffolk County SPCA encourages anyone who comes across a dangerous animal to alert the agency or NYSDEC and let them handle the situation professionally. Thank you!

Two dogs who had been missing since July, found shot dead in their head and their legs bound

- Iowa, USA -


The Cass County Sheriff’s Office said that on August 2, 2022, deputies were made aware of the killing of two dogs in the area of rural Cumberland.


According to the sheriff’s office, the two deceased dogs were found near a bridge on 660th Street, close to Tucson Road. Before being thrown over the bridge, both dogs had been shot in the head and their back legs had been bound. The sheriff’s office added that both furbabies had been missing since July 27, 2022.


FOX 34 identified Mr. Logan Lank as the dogs’ guardian.

Lank said that his dogs, a 1-year-old female Pitbull named Bella, and a 3-year-old black Labrador named Pepper, were snatched from his home in Cumberland. The bridge where Bella and Pepper were found is just two miles away from his home.


Lank told FOX 34 that when Bella and Pepper went missing, the community was a big help with the search which sadly ended with the heartbreaking discovery.

“All of the neighbors around here loved them. I’ve never had any complaints about them,” he said.

Additionally, according to Lank, the community has donated money towards a reward for any information that would lead to an arrest.


The Cass County Sheriff’s Office is investigating these murders and is asking anyone with information to come forward.

Cass County Sheriff Darby McLaren said whoever did it could face animal cruelty charges and believes, based on pictures, that the dogs were killed around the day they went missing.


Speak up for the VOICELESS VICTIMS. They deserve justice and their murderer deserves to begin his/her rotting process in prison first and then end it in hell!

Please, call the Cass County Sheriff’s Office at (712) - 243 - 2206. Thank you!

Investigation underway after a deceased Cane Corso was found inside a wire crate by a trash dumpster

- Virginia, USA -


PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is offering a reward of up to $7,000 for information in an animal cruelty case which is being investigated by Newport News Animal Welfare.


In a news release, Newport News Animal Welfare said that on Monday, July 11, 2022, at about 8:40 a.m. its officers were called to the 2500 block of Marshall Avenue for a report of a deceased dog beside a trash dumpster.


Upon arrival, officers found a lifeless female Cane Corso inside a wire crate.

A necropsy performed on the furbaby revealed that she was 1 to 2 years old and “most likely died from an act of animal cruelty.”

Newport News Animal Welfare did not reveal specifics on the cause of death.

The initial investigation concluded the dog was pushed to the dumpster in a wire crate that was placed on the frame of a baby stroller.


Anyone with information regarding this case is encouraged to come forward and do the right thing. Please, call the Newport News Animal Welfare Division at (757) - 933 - 8953. Thank you!
