A Delaware animal shelter is working to find new homes for thousands of chicks that were left abandoned in a U.S. Postal Service truck for three days.

Delaware’s Department of Agriculture said it received a call earlier this month from USPS saying the Postal Service had an “undeliverable box of baby birds.” About 12,000 chicks had been shipped from the Pennsylvania-based Freedom Ranger Hatchery to farms across the country.

State agricultural officials say that when they found the chicks at a USPS distribution center in Delaware, around 4,000 were dead.

      Look, horrible people who understand, accept, and celebrate atrocities always have and always will exist. These are tiny percentages of society. Are you really that horrible of a person? Or maybe you are just so deep in denial that you go for a distraction like childish insults that help you avoid facing reality? Or maybe just a troll?

      In any case, I will not engage with you any further. Please reflect on your own views, actions, and words.
