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.

Non-Vegans: Stop trolling the vegans. They’re doing what they think is right and aren’t hurting you or anyone else. Show some respect for their views.
Vegans: You’ve made your points. Stop being preachy and condescending toward everyone else (and I say that as a vegetarian myself). Show some respect for their views.
Everyone else: Sorry, but petty bickering like this is why we can’t have nice things.
Edit: Unlocked now that everyone has had time to cool off.
