The Okefenokee Humane Society tries its hardest to limit the number of animals it euthanizes. Additionally, we have been operating at maximum capacity for months. When any shelter is at maximum capacity, legally cannot accept any other animals until more space is made. Space is made in two ways: by adoption and by euthanasia. As adoption rates are really low these days, OHS is currently taking in animals by appointment only. This way we know how many animals will be coming in on a given day and can open spaces for them. 9.
