Adam Britton, a leading zoologist who has worked on BBC and National Geographic productions, pleaded guilty to 56 charges relating to bestiality and animal cruelty.

He also admitted to four counts of accessing child abuse material.

The Northern Territory (NT) Supreme Court heard the 53-year-old filmed himself torturing the animals until almost all died, and then shared the videos online under pseudonyms.

His abuse went unnoticed for years, until a clue was found in one of his videos. Britton was arrested in April 2022 after a search of his rural Darwin property, which also uncovered child abuse material on his laptop.

      “He tortured at least 42 dogs, killing 39 of them, according to court documents seen by the BBC”

      This is beyond being a pervert. This is a fucking serial killer. He tortured and killed the dogs in a shipping container on his property, and fed them to other animals.

      The video that got him caught involved torturing 8 puppies.

        And to my horror as a dog owner, he tricked pet owners into given them to him. It’s not rational but it feels worse when they all had names and people who loved them.

      Croc-wearing gross pervert

      No, you’re thinking of this guy:

      To be fair, we don't know what he was into, just that nobody did it quite right

      “Corporate wants you to find the difference between these two people”

      shows a picture of a massively gross pervert and an expert on croc footwear

      cuts away “they’re the same people”
