Original Note:
The animals, including a “half-blind raccoon with Down syndrome” and a “one-legged crow” were euthanised in 2021 on welfare grounds, not due to the lack of permit. Michigan DNR also claim that despite a prior warning, the woman continued to keep wildlife illegally. https://www.wftv.com/news/trending/michigan-woman-charged-with-caring-wildlife-without-permit-animals-killed-by-state-officials/3H4WISFLIZCYFDKCJ556XKQIYM/?outputType=amp https://www.michigan.gov/dnr/managing-resources/wildlife/wildlife-permits/wildlife-rehabilitation-permit-information
