Reply #5: I am so glad someone went to get them. I saw footage

[sabrina 1]

of reporters who went through that area and they passed several animals trying to fend for themselves. I didn't see the shelties, but there were other dogs and a few horses plus cows in the footage. The whole area was deserted and I wondered what was going to happen to them.

I did read that they were left behind because they might have radiation on their fur. But even so, wouldn't it be better to at least put them to sleep, rather than leave them to die of starvation?

It was really upsetting to see that footage. I know the Japanese, unlike what happened in NOLA, did rescue animals and helped owners take their animals with them to shelters.
