Animals who died in pain... Animal center sparks controversy after illegally euthanizing dozens of abandoned dogs = South Korea

An animal shelter in Miryang, South Gyeongsang Province, has sparked controversy by illegally euthanizing dozens of abandoned dogs.
According to the city of Miryang on the 30th, 37 abandoned dogs were euthanized at an animal protection center commissioned by the city at around 8 a.m. on the 9th.
Abandoned dogs are placed in animal shelters and advertised for adoption for 10 days, but if no one is willing to adopt them within that period, they are euthanized according to procedure.
The problem is that the euthanasia process violated the Animal Protection Act. It was discovered that the veterinarian did not anesthetize the abandoned dog prior to the euthanasia, and performed the euthanasia in front of other animals.
A city official explained, "The center explained that they had covered the dog with a blanket (so that other abandoned dogs would not see the moment they died), but there was a gap." Regarding the fact that the dog was not anesthetized, the veterinarian in question
"They apologized at a meeting with animal protection groups on the 29th," the report said. The city plans to investigate the matter with the animal protection center.
