Yesterday just after 5pm the GSPCA Wardens were called out to three deceased chickens which had been dumped on a beach in the Vale.
They were found near the car park on Route du Pulias thrown onto the top of the rocks on the beach.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “Last night our GSPCA Wardens were called out to 3 deceased chickens that appeared to be dumped on the rocks near the car park on Route du Pulais.”
“The birds had no form of identification and we have informed the States Vets.”
Last October the GSPCA were involved in rescuing 4 reptiles some of which were so thin they were lucky to still be alive.
After months of care at the GSPCA the owner of the animals attended the Magistrates Court in St Peter Port yesterday.
The animals involved were 2 corn snakes, a royal python and a bearded dragon. When they were rescued it was apparent that they hadn’t been cared for in some time due to the state of the enclosures which were extremely dirty and not appropriate for the animals due to the fittings and lack of provisions.
On Saturday afternoon the GSPCA were called out to attend a very serious incident of an injured herring gull at Vazon.
The bird was being cared for by two teenagers who had spotted at a distance two similar aged male teenagers around 14 years throwing stones at the gull.
GSPCA Volunteer Ambulance Warden Michelle Champion attended to rescue the badly injured bird and the team were horrified to find the extent of the injury sustained to the animal.
4 weeks ago today 25 Slovakian puppies were detained at Customs in St Peter Port harbour.
On Thursday the 3rd September two people were in Guernsey Magistrate Court for animal cruelty and fraud to hear their verdicts.
A 59-year-old man from the Slovak Republic was found guilty of animal cruelty and fraud and fined a total of £2,700. He was told that the fine must be paid from custody or he would serve the alternative of 14 days in prison.
This Sunday see the faces of the puppies many have been talking about.

The dogs were brought to Guernsey in a van aboard a ferry from St Malo on the 27th August with a final destination in the UK.
The GSPCA would like to extend a huge thank you for the fantastic support we have been receiving over the last few days.
We have been appealing for towels and donations to care for 25 dogs that were transported to the GSPCA last week and the many other animals at the Shelter.

On Thursday 27th August, the States Vet received an official notification of concerns for the welfare of 25 dogs being transported in a van from Slovakia to the UK via Guernsey on board the ferry from France.
Guernsey Border Agency officers stopped the van and in conjunction with the States Vet the animals were removed to the GSPCA because of concern for their condition.
