Shockingly, in many states, it’s not illegal to leave the scene after hitting an animal with a vehicle. Unfortunately, this means that many animals are killed or suffer while waiting to be rescued, and there’s no way to punish the responsible party.
That might just start to change, however, and it’s all thanks to Charlie. After being struck by a car, this poor guy waited for hours on the snowy roadside before being rescued.
Now, those who helped him are doing something special to make sure no other animals go through that experience…
That’s one resilient pup! You can sign the petition making animal hit and runs like Charlie’s illegal at this website!
