Texas Animals in Danger

 “I never, ever thought my office would turn into a morgue, but it has,” Brooke Chavez, executive director of the sanctuary, told the Chronicle, “[We had] to decide who we can save, depending on the predictability of which animals we can catch.” Multiple innocent wildlife sanctuary animals passed, caused by climate change. The animals died as Winter Storm Uri brought frigid temperatures, snow and ice across much of the south, followed by Winter Storm Viola. The weather is blamed for at least 30 human deaths in several states this week, including Texas. It was also reported from the state executives that, “The facility was among the 2.6 million homes, businesses and other facilities still without power in Texas Wednesday afternoon.”
