Hundreds of animal carcasses were discovered at a shelter near Rostov-on-Don.

The bodies of about 200 animals were found at the "Forgotten Hearts" shelter in the Aksai district; only a few survived.

Volunteers discovered hundreds of animal corpses at the Aksai animal shelter. The animal shelter in question is the "Forgotten Hearts" shelter run by activist Tatyana Makarova. The organization is located in the Rechnik gardening community, according to 161.ru.

According to the volunteers, they contacted the shelter's owner, Tatyana Makarova, and asked her to show them the animals they care for. But they refused to do so under various pretexts. Then the activists arrived themselves. "And today, when we went inside, everyone was hysterical. The entire shelter was strewn with the corpses of various animals. Squirrels, dogs, raccoons, cats, foxes, crows in various states of decomposition," 161.ri quotes the volunteers as saying.

Animal rights activist Alexandra Goltsberg said that the volunteers had to literally walk over corpses. According to her, there are about 200 dead animals there.

"Today, when we arrived there, we found mountains of corpses. Simply mountains of corpses. When the police arrived, they were simply stunned and said they had never seen anything like it in their lives. <…> You're walking through feces, over heads, everything crunches, you could step on a skull. The corpses are piled up in heaps. "I've never even seen anything like this in horror movies," the animal rights activist said.
