As you may have read from international news reports, government authorities in Chuxiong in Yunnan province, embarked on a 5-day dog killing campaign between July 25th and July 30th following the deaths of 3 local people from rabies.
Over 50,000 dogs, including pet dogs, were brutally beaten to death, hung or electrocuted. Initially the government offered dog owners 5rmb (62 US cents) to kill their own dogs, but when this measure failed a special task force was set up to raid suspected homes and kill all dogs found.
Only military and police dogs were spared by the slaughter squads.
A second Chinese city planned a mass dog slaughter to contain a rabies outbreak.
Please, send e-mails to the Chinese authorities expressing your outrage at their brutal dog eradication campaign.
