Each year, a Dog Meat Festival takes place in Yulin, Guang Xi (廣西) a southern city in mainland China. At least 10,000 dogs are killed during this festival which has been strongly condemned by animal activists for its barbaric, unsafe, and inhumane practices. Dogs are packed tightly into small cages with other dogs and are transported a long distance before they are slaughtered, skinned, and cooked for the thousands of festival diners.
Stolen dogs from people's homes all around China are what fuel this festival as well as helpless dogs on the streets. It's a horrific, outdated practice--eating dog meat--is nothing to be celebrated and in fact is against the growing tide of compassion for all animals in China and around the world. We, together, can end this festival and this practice, and help the people of Yulin and surrounding towns switch their economic dependence on this festival to providing sanctuaries for dogs and cats and other domestic animals.
