Outrage at animal abuse at Maskota store in Pachuca

Citizens protested in front of the shopping mall Plaza Galerías in Pachuca after internet users shared at least three videos in which employees of the pet store Maskota are seen abusing animals.

In one of the videos a young man beats a chihuahua dog, while in an other video an employee of the store kicks a hamster.

In a press release, Maskota said that the company filed a complaint against the abusers, while authorities said that the case would be investigated.
