There is a festival in Yulin, China, where local merchants kill thousands of dogs to sell their meat to festival goers.
This terrible festival has to stop. And we want to have our voices heard. In 2017, the Chinese government announced measures against sellers of dog meat, such as fines. But they gave up shortly before the start of the Yulin dog meat festival.
Since 2009, activists estimate that as many as 15,000 dogs are killed for the Yulin. And it was only with societal pressure that the Chinese government considered ending the sale of dog meat in 2017. We need to keep up the pressure this year!
As a global community, sign and share today to help end Yulin and the dog meat trade.
Our goal is to launch a major campaign with thousands of signatures, and deliver it to the Chinese embassy.
Let’s show our outrage! We want the Chinese government to commit to animal rights. We respect the people and culture of China, and we understand that there are many Chinese who are also against the Yulin Festival, as this article shows.
