The Animal Protective Association cut ties with the St. Louis County animal shelter on Friday. The partnership’s dissolution comes at a time of anxiety and suspicion among shelter volunteers, who were told they would need to reapply in order to continue volunteering at the facility. Animal advocates are also concerned after a Missouri Sunshine Law request revealed a proposal suggesting the use of mass euthanasia to lower the shelter’s population. We talk about the shelter’s operations with Post Dispatch reporter Kelsey Landis and County Health Director Kanika Cunningham.
