Things to do to Stop Dog and Cat Meat Trade and Yulin Festival- Everyone's Responsibility

Dog meat trade is responsible for the decimation and consumption of about 30 to 40 million dogs in Asia per annum.

Arguably, humans usually consider the carnivores living on land inedible and avoid eating cats, dogs, lions, tigers, etc. under normal circumstances.

Yulin festival in which countless dogs and cats, many of which are the stolen pets of people,  are consumed is so arbitrary and  artificial that it has been in our lives for only 5 years- it started in 2010 by the endeavors of dog meat mafia in China.

It is considered hateful by many people; see an article about it here. People from all over the world, including numerous heroes in China and other Asian countries, welcomed this event and its incredibly violent ways of entertainment with so big hatred that it has been the talk of the town for the people with conscience all around the world.

Dog meat trade and festivals like Yulin must end as soon as possible. 2016 will be the stage of other atrocities toward the pets but there is a chance that the leaders might handle the issue in 2017.

Benefits of dogs for humanity have been numerous for centuries. If these atrocities are not stopped, the world will be the place where about 3 billion “best friends” will be decimated. Countless cats must not be overlooked. Keep in mind the sense of compassion they would deliver to people!

We brought together the things to be done to stop Yulin and other atrocities; please act as much as you can to make Yulin and others history by 2017.

4-      Help the NGOs

6-      Use Pet Forums to Let the People Know the Issue

Pet forums are usually crammed with people concerned about their own pets but they are in love with animals. Numerous forums do not discuss the issue. You will find many supporters (and opponents).

7-      Remember

Pets are never meant to be eaten. It is the duty of all of us to deal with the issue. We need billions of pets among us to continue to spread happiness. So, you can discover the ways you can volunteer according to your comfort zone and opportunities.
