There is a precedent for this.
In China, the Great Leader Mao Tse-Tung decided in 1958 to get rid of sparrows, calculating that each bird (the tree sparrow) consumed 4.5kg of grain each year and that for every million sparrows killed, there would be food for 60,000 people.
He mobilised the population to kill the birds, to great effect: at least 2.8 million sparrows were killed in Shantung province alone. But what Mao had not taken into account was the number of noxious insects the sparrows consumed when rearing their young. The net result was that the following year the rice crop, far from being increased, was significantly down, The idea was quickly forgotten and the birds soon recovered to their normal level.
It almost caused an ecological catastrophe the mother f*cker.
I don't really see the big deal. There, a dogs life is significantly less valued than here. How were they supposed to kill them, lethal injections all around? Too expensive, and too time consuming.
If they had a problem with Rabies, and they needed to eliminate the population, they made the right choice. Sure - it would have been sad, but thats their decision as a population, and I don't see why its that big of a deal. I'd rather have a pile of dead dogs, as opposed to having rabies.
lol china is fucked up

(as a possible comparison) Genreally no one over here would get upset if we killed a crap load of rats... yet many view rats as pets too. I had two, Nosey and Nipper when I was a younger. |

| Originally posted by Jem_hadar Question though: Would treating dogs as such be any worse than treating rats as such over here? (though thats not exactly the case, I know, since we dont go around randomly stepping on rats heads for no reason or throwing bricks at them or tossing them against vehicles (referring to that first picture in this thread) I dont agree its right to hurt any animals as such. Only point is, to use my previous analogy of dogs to them = rats to us, that we should only be as outraged at this behaviour as we would if this had involved rats instead. |

| Originally posted by KaiLee I agree with you...the point I'm trying to make is they have been beating dogs and cats for years there. Hundreds of thousands of dogs and cats (including stolen pets) are inhumanely killed for fur trade in China but one never sees that getting a substantial amount of media attention.... |
