North Canterbury chicken rescue centre ransacked by vandals
A North Canterbury charity that rescues and re-homes unwanted chickens has been ransacked by vandals, leaving at least six hens badly hurt.
An unknown person entered the North Canterbury Chicken Rescue site in West Eyreton on Tuesday, letting around 400 chickens loose by opening gates and pens.
Founder Amanda Gill said the person also pulled more than half of the water feeders off their pipes, leaving the animals without water on a day when temperatures reached 30 degrees Celsius.
