117 dead dogs found at California 'no-kill' animal rescue - many with gunshot wounds (BBC)

Investigators have found the remains of 117 dogs in various states of decomposition - many of which were found with gunshot wounds - on the grounds of a purported "no-kill" animal shelter in northern California.

Authorities excavated open fields at Miranda's Rescue Animal Sanctuary for evidence of animals believed to be buried in mass graves, the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office said. About 600 dog collars were also located.

Officials had been investigating potential fraud or animal cruelty after hundreds of animals were discovered missing from the facility.
