Ummm... WTF does that have to do with this? Can't you be concerned about multiple things at the same time

Sure we can be concerned w/multiple things at the same time, but in the grand scheme of things, is a dog's life more significant than a human being's?

usually, yeah.

I would open up a fast food chain serving specialty burgers made with dog meat. Just think, 50,000 dogs, that's gotta be over 200,000 lbs of meat.

Out of 50K dogs, how many actually had rabies?

When other countries kill 2 or 3 million cows because one or two may have Mad Cow disease, nobody complains because this is the only way they can cope with the problem.

Rural Chinese live in extreme poverty and can barely feed themselves. Spending money on dogs is out of the question. They cope with the problem the only way they can.
I would have been hiding my dogs and dressing up my cats as dogs.

Sad as it is, I tend to agree.

I'm pretty sure it's a violation of my human rights if some government comes, takes my dog, then kills it in front of me. Abuse to animals isn't the only thing going on here. If you can't see the "human rights violations" here then you're a blind moron.

If you don't give your dog proper vaccinations or can't provide proof that you did, then your dog is a danger to society in general. So it should be killed and served for food.

until you've been/lived in the rural parts of China, then everything you say basically has no relevance. It's another world over there, drastically different than the U.S. People think oh yeah just give them all shots like those things grow out of the ground and that they could just post a notice in the daily newspaper or something.

 

[Extelleron]

Hate to sound unemotional, but meh, it's China. They do it to humans, they'll do it to pets in the blink of an eye.

I was with you up until that last sentence? Why would you consider a potentially rabid dog a source of food? A healthy dog over there, yes, it's a food source, but they also are kept as pets as well.

As for not keeping it "Up on shots", I agree with that somewhat but I doubt all 50,000 dogs lacked the proper immunizations, and the ones that did probably were because the government over there makes it insanely hard for people to do anything normal like seek proper medical care/attention for their pets.

If this was a slaughter of 50,000 dogs considered a food source then it would be no different than us as Americans putting down that many cows with mad cow disease, but they don't really state if these are pets or food sources.

I'm done pretending that I know what goes on over there, all I do know is it's sad no matter how you look at it.

It still doesn't fix the problem to kill the dogs. Rabies is still going to be present in the wildlife. I can understand if they started rounding up stray dogs, but killing dogs that werein people's homes is just pointless.

 

[iroast]

Free vaccines would have been a more popular move.

 

[eits]

HWHAT?! NO!

 

[SlitheryDee]

I wonder how well it worked. Aren't there quite a few other animals besides dogs that carry and pass on rabies?

 

[Imdmn04]

We kill a ton of cows for mad cow, the same principle applies to any other animal.

If you wanna do something, do it right. :thumbsup:

Do you wanna volunteer to check all 50K dogs for rabies? Are you donating money for such a task? Yeah, I don't think so. In the end Human Life > Dog Life. Oh BTW, for all you people hating on the Chinese government for killing 50K dogs, your US government's not doing so "bad" on killing dogs too, just more incognito. While down from previous years, US animal shelters kill more than 4.2 million dogs a year.

Um, no it wasn't necessary.

In the not so distance past they had to slaughter chickens and pigs to contain various flu epidemics so how is this different.

 

[rh71]

I suppose their only option but those people (I guess my people back there) are pretty heartless nonetheless.

Rabies != Flu.

Do you understand how both spread? Here's a clue -- rabies doesn't spread anything like influenza.

Not at all the same. Killing off stray animals is not the same as grabbing pets out of people's homes and beating them to death in front of them. WTF is wrong with some of you people? Also, people who keep bring up other diseases simply don't understand how each of these diseases are spread. This move by the Chinese was totally unecessary.
