Animal services officials in southern California have rescued more than 100 neglected animals including dogs, horses, birds and pet cockroaches from a home in Riverside county.
Riverside county officials served a search warrant on Wednesday at a property that was discovered following the Nixon fire that burned more than 5,200 acres (2,100 hectares) in July, according to a statement released on Thursday.
At the property, officials discovered more than 100 animals, with a majority of them being livestock or birds. Among the animals were three horses, six goats and several dogs, some of which have been described as “wolf hybrid” by community members, according to officials.
“There had also been recent reports on social platforms of dogs being willfully abandoned. Some of those dogs, described as ‘wolf hybrids’, have been collected by the public and animal services. Some of those types of dumped dogs looked similar to those found at the Aguanga property,” the statement said.

Most important part left out of the description. Let's hope the charges stick.
