More than 250 poodle-cross dogs were discovered at a property in the UK earlier this year in conditions so overcrowded that many people online believed images of the scene were fake.
The RSPCA has now clarified that the photos are real, after social media users questioned whether artificial intelligence had been used. “We can confirm that AI has not been used to create this image,” the charity said on its website. “As much as we wish this image wasn’t real, sadly it very much is.”
