This is not from Yulin in China. This is in Lezhe, Albania. It’s the Mayors solution to face the stray dogs issue. It’s not clear what really happens to the animals when they are caught and gathered in these tiny cages.
Mr. Fran Frokaj, Mayor of Lezhe, decided to capture stray dogs and authorized to kill the sick and dangerous ones.
Many studies have shown that the best approach to face the stray dogs problem is the CNR (Capture, Neuter and Release). Vaccination, habitat control, and responsible pet ownership, including sterilization, are now the best approach to face the stray dogs issue. Widespread adoption of CNR (Capture, Neuter and Return/Release) programs for dogs, along with changes in human behavior and environment, offers a sustainable remedy for both disease and animal welfare problems posed by free-roaming dogs in developing countries.
OIPA supports the vaccination and spay/neuter campaigns of stray dogs as solution for the problem, keeping them in cages or massive killings are cruel, expensive and useless solutions to this issue.
