Many rabbits were found in poor condition after being allegedly abandoned by a couple in cardboard boxes in Seletar.Speaking to AsiaOne, Derrick Tan, founder of Voices For Animals (VFA), said that he received a call at around 11.45pm on Friday (Sept 18) about rabbits spotted at 29 Seletar Farmway 1.There were more than 20 rabbits, with some hiding in the cardboard boxes allegedly used to dump them there.Photos and videos uploaded by Tan on social media show multiple boxes left by the roadside, with rabbits roaming around the street.Another video shared by Tan shows newborns in some of the boxes."The surrounding terrain was wet and damp after the heavy downpour, and the condition of the rabbits we found was heartbreaking," Tan said, adding that some of them had matted fur covered in urine and stains, while some were found with wounds.In an Instagram story on Saturday, he said that the couple who allegedly abandoned the rabbits have been identified, and that their actions have been caught on camera by vehicles parked nearby.
