Dog markets in Asia
Warning: think twice before you enter this link
Photo report from Dog market in South Korea.
Dogs for food are not pets and they have no names. They are bred in cages in farms, just like pigs or chicken and other animals.
Do you think banning dog meat in Asia will help the situation of those animals?
Do you think showing horrible pictures of those animal's suffering will change people's opinions about animal's rights? I am afraid those pictures make viewers hate all Korean and China.
Dog meat is eaten in some countries and certain breeds of dogs are raised on farms and slaughtered for their meat. Dog meat may be consumed as an alternative source of meat or for specific medicinal benefits attributed to various parts of a dog. In parts of the world where dogs are kept as pets, people generally consider the use of dogs for food to be a social taboo.
