Why won't our local SPCA work with rescue groups?

The SPCA is supposed to save animals, not give them to research labs. I've volunteered at my local branch for years, and they have always been more than happy to work with rescue groups. Apparently your local group has a few corrupt people working there. Bring the matter to the attention of PETA and I'm sure something could be done. Unfortunately, lots of shelters are forced to euthanise unwanted and feral animals each year which is exactly what the SPCA is supposed to be trying to prevent, so talk to some uppety ups and try to be proactive about the situation.
