Who dumped their pets in the garbage? - Catherine - 11-07-2018
A garbageman picked up ten gallon tank that was being discarded and discovered it had two lizards in it. The OSPCA has taken them in and are fighting to save their lives. It was very cold. Those lizards were left outside to die.

Leopard Geckoes are such gentle creatures. They are so dependent on us for care. If someone didn't want them they could have given them away or dropped them off at the animal shelter. These lizards can't survive here. Also they were left in an enclosed tank. They were totally helpless. That is a despicable act of cruelty.

Unbelievable what is wrong with people,they could have given them to someone that really wanted them.

If they had even places the tank outside a pet store it would have shown that they wanted the lizards to live. They put them in the garbage alive. That is nasty. I hope whoever they are, they see the article about what they did. If I knew who they are I would turn them in.
