Officers found hundreds of animals inside the house and a detached garage. That included rabbits, rats, mice, hedgehogs, chinchillas, turtles, fish, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, and a ball python.

The owner watched while they pulled the animals out.
She says she is justified having that many animals "If they can't handle them, why are they taking them? We have newborn babies who are going to die. We have pregnant moms who are going to abort or are going to die. They can't handle the stress of this," Babs Galkowski said.

Officers also found several dead animals scattered through the residence in various states of decomposition or stored in a freezer.

Galkowski says there's an explanation for all the dead animals found frozen. They're food for other animals.

"We do have some bodies of animals that have passed they're in my freezer I have animals in there that I go to the raptor project with that feed raptors in Minnesota," Galkowski said.
