4 Massachusetts SPCA execs Make Over $200K- How WRONG is that?

As someone that gives to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals- and always has, this article from Friday's Boston Globe really peeved me. Okay, I can deal with $100K because it's a big responsibility to get donations, marketing, managing and organizing.. but more money in a NON-PROFIT that's Dedicated to animal welfare? NO, NO, NO. People donate for the animals, not the executives. - People who work around animals work around them and for them because of their love for them. I'm sure the folks at my doggy day care don't make much money at all - BUT They're happy. These kinds of salaries are inexcusable. (I don't believe the Maryland SPCA has these issues).
This photo I found on-line IS what the money is supposed to be going to - helping these poor abused animals improve their lives. NOT executive outrageous salaries.

Here's the story:

FOUR EXECS OF MASS. SPCA MAKE OVER $200K
As the nonprofit Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals prepares to close three animal shelters in reaction to a 25 percent loss in its endowment, advocates for animals are questioning the pay packages of the society's top administrators.
Four of the top five officials at the MSPCA make more than $200,000 annually, according to the organization's latest tax-exempt filing. "I think that some of that money would be better spent on caring for the animals," said Joyce Godsey, a volunteer at the nonprofit Animal Rescue of Merrimack Valley.
In 2007, MSPCA's chief executive officer, Carter Luke, received a salary and benefit package worth $340,595. The vice president of human resources received $215,723, the chief medical officer received $246,337, and the vice president of development received $202,880.
