With One New Law, China Could Be on the Verge of Ending Dog Meat Festivals

It’s not every day that animal rights advocates are actually excited about news coming out of China. The country has had a less than stellar track record when it comes to the treatment of nonhuman living creatures.

From live baby turtles being made into keychains to animals being skinned alive before being put on the market, animal rights in the world’s most populous country still have a very long way to go. Nowhere is this truer than when it comes to the treatment of dogs.

For animal rights advocates, one of the most upsetting events each year is the Yulin Dog Meat Festival. The 10-day festival has been responsible for the slaughter of thousands of dogs per year. Dog meat consumers believe that the meat tastes better when dogs have more adrenaline in their blood — so dog butchers will often torture dogs to death in order to increase their adrenaline flow. Dogs are beaten, burned alive with blowtorches, or tossed into boiling pots of water.

Thanks to public outcry, both within China and around the world, the festival’s popularity has decreased and restrictions have been set, leading to fewer dogs being killed. But that hasn’t been enough to end the festival for good.

And that’s why activists are so hopeful today since news broke that two Chinese governing bodies, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and the National People’s Congress (NPC), plan to introduce new legislation that will provide special protections to canines by classifying them as companion animals.

The new law, if passed, would exclude dogs from being used for human consumption and includes additional protections from other forms of animal abuse and cruelty.

While dogs are not the only animals that suffer cruelty in China, this is exciting news and we all need to get behind it to show the country the world hopes for a China without animal cruelty.

Please join Care2 and sign this petition in support of the new measure to classify dogs as companion animals in China.

The University of Florida held an event called “Family Day at the Dairy Farm” where – among other horrors – they taught kids how to sexually inseminate dairy cows.

“That’s the vagina;
Now put that down in there and push it in.” says  the “educator” to the child!

It is not enough that children grow up with lies and fairy tales about the lives of animals, which are treated only as dairy machines on farms. Now the Milchmafia tries to justify the children the rape of the cattle as necessary practice and therefore the farmer trivializes this criminal practice, as naturally and without problems.

But as soon as one speaks of rape in animals public, one is a misanthrope. Rape is a word for humans, not for animals.  As appropriate, carcass is a word for animals and corpses for human animals.

And with this language we concretize a position of power and an inequality. That is the language of the rulers.

I adopt the definition of rape from the Dictionary.com about Rape:

“Illegal sexual intercourse or any other form of sexual penetration of the vagina, anus or mouth, with or without violence, through a sexual organ or other body part or an object without the victim’s consent”.

In the special case of dairy cows, these criminal practices follow after the rape:

In insemination centers, bulls are usually masturbated manually by a farmer twice a week, with 2 or 3 ejaculates per collection day. All forms of dairy farming involve the forced feeding of cows. In this procedure, a person puts his arm deep into the rectum of the cow to determine the location of the uterus and then drive a seed-filled instrument into her vagina.

1) Year after year, to ensure uninterrupted milk production, the cows are forced into an endless cycle of pregnancy and childbirth, and their newborn calves are taken away from them. Mother cow and calf are crying after being separated. 21 million male calves are killed worldwide every year. They are considered “waste products” of the dairy industry.

2) Dairy cows are forced into slavery to produce milk for humans throughout their lives. They have no freedom.

3) After only 4 to 6 years, the dairy cows are exhausted from the constant forced milk production. Often they are already weak and ill when transported to the slaughterhouse, traumatic to these docile animals. Under normal circumstances – without exploitation and slaughterhouse – cows can become at least 25 years old.

Parents! Tell your children the truth:

Today’s milk production is a story of cruel human barbarism. These cruelties only happen because consumers demand milk and dairy products whose devastating effects on human health have been substantiated by scientific studies.

Whenever we say humans are very different from animals, and that rape, suffering, slavery, and torture in the animal factories do not have the same weight as they do for humans – even though we all have similar brain structures and physiological mechanisms – we do it to reassure our conscience and to justify our complicity in these criminals’ practices.

Animals are not property, no objects and no slaves, machines or products.

Say that to your children!

My best regards to all, Venus
