Officer Who Refused Direct Orders To Kill Two Helpless Animals Pays A Big Price

What would you do if you were ordered to do something that went against your personal morals?

It takes a lot of guts and a strong sense of right and wrong to stick to what you personally believe is right.

It is believed that the cubs were in search of their mother, who had been put down after breaking into a trailer too many times.

The cubs were successfully subdued and tranquilized, but then Officer Casavant was given an order he couldn’t follow through on.
