What's Your Saddest Animal Story

Here's one. Not my dog but not the point. I can't quite remember who it was but there was a youtuber who was about to go fishing when he saw a man dragging a bag into the lake. He grabbed it and opened it after the man left. Turned out to be a litter of puppies that were way to young to be alone. He was able to save them thankfully but if it were anyone else that found them they probably would not have handled it that well. I cannot comprehend why someone would do such a thing. Especially to very young puppies.
