The ASPCA's euthanasia practices are a topic of concern for many animal lovers. The ASPCA does euthanize animals in shelters and facilities, but only in specific circumstances.
In fact, the ASPCA's euthanasia policy states that they will humanely euthanize animals that are suffering from severe medical conditions, are aggressive, or have behavioral issues that make them unadoptable.
The ASPCA also works to reduce euthanasia rates by promoting Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs, providing spay/neuter services, and increasing adoption rates.
According to the ASPCA's own statistics, they euthanized around 2,000 animals in their shelters in 2020, which is a significant decrease from previous years.
