From Mop:
2009 May 31, an indiscriminate massacre was carried out throughout the entire 3206 square kilometer county of Yangxian in Shaanxi province — the target of the massacre were dogs! No matter whether it has a license, whether it was vaccinated, whether it was leashed, whether it was owned, they were all given the death penalty on May 31.
After Heilongjiang province’s Heihe city’s plot to become a dog-less county failed, Yangxian has become the first dog-less county in the entire country.
Comments on Mop:
幻双:
You bunch of people should not blindly scold, have you guys seen the news at all? There was a rabies outbreak and an alarming amount of infected and dead. When raising dogs, one must also be responsible to the public. If it is going to bite people, at least keep it at home to bite yourselves, don’t let it out to harm others.
绝不吃肉:
The families of the dog-killers must die. That’s all.
我舅舅卖酱油的:
In China, even people are not treated as people, much less dogs without backgrounds/connections.
哇咔..哇咔咔:
If influenza breaks out amongst humans, are we supposed to begin massacring humans?
Inhuman.
chenzhao770:
If anyone dares to come kill my dog, I will definitely fight them to the death. I really want to ask, those people who owned dogs, how could you guys give up your dogs [to be killed]!!!
雷你玩:
What I want to say is
Dogs are man’s best friend, please pay attention to the balance of nature!
驴中之牛:
Everyone go on Baidu and search for the “rabies attack” video, then come discuss whether the go-vern-ment’s actions are right or not. See that poor child, see how KB rabies is.
驴中之牛:
Fucking administrators, only allowing netizens to criticize the go-vern-ment, not allowing netizens to defend the go-vern-ment? I simply do not feel what Yangxian did was inappropriate. In consideration of protecting the local citizen’s health, what was inappropriate? Is this place only for criticizing the go-vern-ment? It appears you are an internet spy like I said, intentionally trying to incite hostility in society.
Dee、灼眼的小绵:
Grass mud horse.
A bunch of bastards, I hope you will also be treated this way by people when you go on the streets, fuck.
If you really have ability, do a good job preventing disease. What bullshit use is just killing dogs?
Why not just kill all the people, then there would be no diseases at all.
┢┦a○Sんひ:
I like cats more. Cats are also harder to catch, so if they want to massacre cats, I bet the level of difficulty would be very high.
事后:
There are no human rights in China, and you want dog rights? Are you joking?
不是贱人是贱货:
Please read the news and understand more, all caring about dogs’ rights, how come no one pays attention to those people on the streets who must hide [from the dogs]?
Resolutely support clean up of stray dogs! Our society has not yet developed the point of defending dog rights, has it?
爱情迷路人:
If it were our family members bitten and infected with rabies, would you complain about the go-vern-ment not timely preventing the spread of rabies and say the go-vern-ment failed to do its job!
First read the news and understand what happened, then come voice your opinion. I am not speaking for the government nor do I dare to speak for the government. I just want everyone to understand. We can observe how foreign countries handle things.
猫猫猫猫扑扑扑:
“River crab” MLGB, just who are mad/rabid dogs?
Z某某:
Too immoral…all day talking about human rights…yet a person does not even have the right to have a dog?
亞☆瑟:
Kill!!!

They say, “We can observe how foreign countries handle things.” yet don’t seem to grasp how this would be handled. If there was a government sanctioned extermination of dogs in the west the citizens would demand an extermination of government officials.
hey look at this !still fucking motherfucker Chinese,they dont know what to do in their fucking shit life.Then they kill again and again, it’s their shit pleasure.
my dream it’s to catch you motherfucker Chinese, and do the same thing to you, no pity for these fucking Chinese
Sweet! buffet time!
Can you report at all on Chinese reactions to the recent government Internet crackdown; or ANYTHING to do with the 20th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre?
agreed. far too much waffle on Chinasmack these days…
Why should Chinasmack need to prove itself to either of you? It’s providing a free service, yet you just complain.
If you want stuff on those issues, there are plenty of websites reporting them, or you could start your own website.
if they report on that, there might be more than just a DoS attack.
chinaSMACK reports on topics that are hot on the Chinese Internet. The events 20 years ago at Tiananmen Square aren’t being discussed by most Chinese on the Internet, ergo, there is nothing about it on chinaSMACK.
There must be *some* discussion of the broad censorship itself, even if not directly about the Massacre (that happened 20 years ago, as you pointed out). I would understand why the Massacre (that happened 20 years ago) would not be discussed as most people don’t want to arrested or put into exile for speaking truth to power. But there must be some discussion about Twitter, Hotmail, etc, all being blocked (due to the Massacre that took place 20 years ago).
SWEET! chinaSMACK is back!
Orz, there certainly is some discussion, but in reality, Twitter and Hotmail aren’t really that big in China. Blocking YouTube had a bigger effect, but that was in March.
well, they took out pretty much very single large discussion forum and for some reason file sharing sites as well. (still pissed over “technical maintenance” period for verycd) It’s true twitter and hotmail isn’t big in China at all, it’s quite funny how TV news caster assumes what big here is automatically big over there.
I know Twitter isn’t big but Hotmail certainly is. Most people I know (that is, most Chinese in China that I know) have a hotmail account.
Rubbish, the major discussion forums (i.e. the ones that are regularly featured on chinaSMACK) were all up and running as usual. As for veryCD, it was only the front page that was down for maintenance. Do a google search for site:verycd.com to find content directly and bypass the front page and you’ll be fine.
As for most people having a hotmail account, yep they do, but do they care about it? Not really because it’s almost certain not to be their only/main account. Take away their QQ account and you’ll get a reaction.
There are plenty of places on the web where you can read about the Tiananmen anniversary. Personally I prefer that chinaSMACK remains focused. If there was lots of discussion happening about Tiananmen on major Chinese forums, then I’d expect to read about it here. If there wasn’t, I wouldn’t want them to write an article on it just for the sake of it.
TheOrz, I too was mistaken in thinking that Hotmail was big in China. Of course, it isn’t “small” but as mlgb said above, the Chinese who do have Hotmail don’t usually use it as their primary account. Instead, they use homegrown free e-mail accounts from Sina or 163 or whatever. The Hotmail accounts they do have were mostly registered for them to get MSN Messenger (which IS big) and that’s it. I had dinner with Kaiser Kuo earlier this week and was also surprised to hear him say that maybe as much as 50% of Chinese netizens don’t even use e-mail (QQ would be a substitute). 50% is much more than I would have thought, but he should know better than I so I defer to him on that.
Horrible :(
ummm I watch Chinese news on PPS and they say that the dog have disease……some “dog” loving netizen are just spouting lies.
What is PPS news? Is this a foreign news service that is broadcast in Chinese or a Chinese news service?
PPS = PPStream, a peer-to-peer video service. You can watch all sorts of stuff on it, from television to movies. More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PPStream
how is PPS compare to TVants? I using TVants now, but it’s quite slow and choppy.
Inhumane behaviour is the norm here.People deprived of participatory and representative governance always go over the top when tey get a little bit of power and do do nasty stuff.
Sad bastards but they deserve teir shitty existence.
“I like cats more. Cats are also harder to catch, so if they want to massacre cats, I bet the level of difficulty would be very high.”
This was done in Beijing last summer before the Olympics!
welcome back china smack. looks like somebody is harmonized.
I agree that dogs running lose are dangerous and should be taken care of. But, harmless dogs with papers. That’s just stupid.
For example the Shiba Inu in the 2nd picture. Hell, that dog is worth $1,000 in the USA right now since the whole Shiba Inu viral webcam craze.
But then again, the market price for a baby without papers from the county of Yangxian in Shaanxi province is about $1,000.
Illogical overreaction.
Dogs are just one of the minor vectors for rabies. Bats are the major. Killing all those dogs is utterly pointless when every other vector for rabies is flying and crawling around. You can’t destroy them all. That’s why one should regulate and license dog ownership, require shots and rabies vaccinations. Simple.
lmao, and there’s bats in Yangxian County? They’re killing stray and wild dogs.
you are ignorant, not many bats in inner cities in china
students were massacred 20 years ago like the dogs on this article. lets never forget what took place back then whatever you do pig headed people from the ccp you can’t stop it.
“I simply do not feel what Yangxian did was inappropriate. In consideration of protecting the local citizen’s health, what was inappropriate?”
Wow, ignorance is rife. As was previously mentioned, dogs are just one minor vector for dissemination of rabies. This “solution” smacks of the Maoist “eradication of the 4 pests policy” a critical determinant in producing a famine that took tens of millions of Chinese lives.
Glad to see from this forum that not all Chinese are totally brainwashed.
Patriotism is poison, think critically.
“As was previously mentioned, dogs are just one minor vector for dissemination of rabies.”
Ridiculous, dogs especially stray and wild dogs are a major vector for infection. Calling to think critically without information is the essence of being brainwashed.
It wasn’t the fact that they killed the stray(and possibly)rabie infected dogs it’s the fact that they killed dogs that never had rabies in the first place and were owned and licensed by legal owners were killed too. Regardless of their condition.
And also killing every single dog in a country is going waaaaaaaaaay to far over rabies.
I understand that today is June 4th and all, but I’m a little amused by all the above comments that find a way to equate the killing of these dogs out of fear of rabies with Tiananmen, government oppression, or lack of political freedoms/rights. Seriously, guys, sometimes people (and county governments) just do stupid things because, well, they’re stupid. Not EVERYTHING in China traces back some overarching political tragedy.
P.S. – I think the third picture of a bunch of guys chasing a dog with big wooden sticks is downright hilarious. They look so stupid, and it’s just such a ludicrous thing to be doing.
Yeah… that picture speaks volumes about the people involved. In my imagination that dog led them on a hilarious chase through that dirty county town with amusing and painful deaths, or at least major injury, befalling each bafoon.
But, I must say as a dog owner, I’d love to just beat the hell out of those idiots. Call me irrational (that’s certainly true), but that’s exactly what I want to do. Even wild dogs and strays (and human beings too) deserve a painless death.
To be honest, writing from the UK, we have had plenty of animal disease problems (like “foot and mouth”) which resulted in exterminating large numbers of farm animals and burning their bodies.
This is the best non-BBC gallery I could find –
http://www.guardian.co.uk/gall/0,,443237,00.html.
Unfortunately these things are sometimes necessary to prevent spread of the disease and protect the human population. The mystery is why there cannot be a more professional approach than having a bunch of guys chasing dogs with sticks.
(Incidentally, although I can’t imagine it will be there for long, the comments page on mop.com is currently filled with Japanese pornography!).
Thanks for another interesting story, Fauna.
DWR
Welcome Back ChinaSmack, We missed you!
Anybody using YOUTUBE???
Anyway, I have no problem with the practice, that’s your thing if you wanna do it and they are animals after all. No difference between it and a cow. But it is still stupid, I won’t do it. But this thing is even stupider.
Yeah Chinasmack is back! F**** the DOS script-kiddies (government? or fengqing?).
“they are animals after all”
so just randomly killing them is ok???
animals are innocent; their every action is determined by biological instinct and not the consciousness of right or wrong.
No dude. I was thinking of the practice of eating, when the topic is completely different. My bad. Yeah, I think this is disgusting and sick and the people responsible are bastards.
They kill dogs because they’re too weak to kill Japanese. Classic little-man syndrome.
Remind me never to visit Shaanxi again. At least those fucking assholes could get the police out there to shoot them (a TAD bit more humane). I want to make it clear that I mean shoot the dogs, not the retarded Chinese guys with sticks. A bullet is way too lenient for those guys. Retarded grass mud horses. Again it goes to show how Chinese people in groups venting all their pent up anger is the most dangerous thing. Hope someone never mistakes you for a thief somewhere in China or the barbarians will gang up on you and bludgeon you to death,, much like a dog.
As a new dog owner in Shanghai, I have been so surprised to see how Chinese people react to dogs in general.
Our dog is a large breed, and though she is only 7 months old, she’s still much bigger than most of the dogs in our apartment complex.
When I take her out for a walk (on a leash), I see people go another way to avoid us. I also see parents tell their children to stay away from the dog because it bites.
I also see people afraid to come into the elevator because there is a dog there.
I have a few friends who are also afraid of the dog when they come to visit me. Some of them have changed their idea about her after meeting her, but they still say they are nervous about dogs.
I never realized there were so many people who were afraid of dogs. And although most of these people have never actually been bit by a dog, they are still afraid. What is it with the irrational fear of dogs that so many people seem to have?
The fear is there because people treat their and other dogs like shaite. Beating them and yelling at them so they become insecure and messed up. Thats why many dogs react with fear and/or aggression when they meet strangers hence the average Chinese person is vary of dogs. A staggering low number of Chinese people have any idea about how to raise a dog and use language the dog can understand. Most dogs in Chinese eyes are no different than a goldfish.
I think that is true for larger dog’s in general. In my vicinity there is a lady that walks two German Shepherds that really are dangerous. I just saw them attack a little poodle the other day. I don’t trust a large dog unless I can recognize their breed. If you have an Akita, then I wouldn’t get in the elevator. If you had a Retriever, then no problem. It would likely lick me to death. But, then again, I can usually name breeds by looking at them. In China, good luck. Dogs were food until recently (and still are in places).
It’s not the breed, it’s the owner. Upbringing is everything
Your typical Mainlander don’t have frequent contact with animals, much less know how to handle them., with the exception of farmers of course. Typically, in China dogs and cats are views as pests and food, not pets.
In housing areas, dogs are eveywhere. Although small ones are favoured over large breeds.
People even walk their dogs without leads if they’re small.. And I have noticed my host-mother seems to be afraid of big dogs when they come near.. But then again she’s not very big herself so I can understand why.
I am so for this! Where I live here in an older neighborhood there are wild dogs everywhere from the local colleges, girl buy puppies and then when they get older they throw them out then get new puppies. The dogs grow up wild and frequently attack people. Rabies and other diseases pass between these dogs and they shit all over the sidewalks. Why not clean up the problem? No one will take them in so might as well kill them, its not like we don’t do the same thing in the states, just in a different manor. This one is more cost effective though.
Colin, you are an idiot.
no, we don’t kill dog in the states. we just “puts them to sleep”
Lolz, Once, I observed a person keeping a WILD pet, you guess what it was,
Damn , it was a LION, properly grown but female because I didn’t see any big hairs around his neck, He took him into the room, the dining room and his friends were like, sticking to the wall…..OXOX…..
Its out of context of this topic…. Let it be..
Street dogs get killed in many countries but i have to imagine there would be an outcry if the government intended to kill everyone’s pets. What happened? What is the point? I doubt people’s pets could cause a rabies epidemic and even if there were problems you could develop regulations for the owners. It’s normal for government asshats to overreact but where was the backlash?
Happy to see chinaSMACK’s back, althought this post is making me feel bad.
The brainwashed are responding to their signals.
Is there any truth, accuracy, balance or perspective in the Chinese media about rabies? No. Just the same for H1N1. Watch a foreigner walk past a Chinese hospital and you’ll be people crapping their pants in terror. Just hysteria. Just fear. Just cowardice.
Why? “Logic is a trick of the foreign devils. We refuse to use it.”
but also keep in mind the virulence of H1N1 0.4% which is about 10 times more than that regular flu. In China, there is far more density to spread the disease and far less resources to treat it. Just because it is treatable in the US and thus minimal concern to it people, doesn’t it is case for people in the rest of the work. In 1957, a flu with similar virulence to current H1N1 (hence non-flu season) kill 4 million people in China.
Old Yeller
Gawker on that thing that did not happen…
http://gawker.com/5278749/china-confirms-nothing-happened-20-years-ago-today
To be honest this is highly disturbing. Diseases are one thing and there are ways of handling them without blindly killing every single animal. This is 2009 and China does have access and the capability and wealth to vaccinate or treat animals, if it so chooses. This though seems more like another plot to “hey, we have to race to be the first!”. Just this time it caused the distruction of animals who were defenseless against the plot, but then again the destruction of the defenseless goes back in recent history to a certain Square (think June 4th) and a certain country (erradicated monks and citizens… even further back millions of people). When will people in China learn that being first is not always being best or to be greedy. Destruction does have consequences. Remember Mao and the birds.
In Yanji (Jilin province) dogs are part of the local regional cuisine. Yet an extermination campaign is still underway. For dogs, one might ask? No, for humans! In fact there is a bounty for the arrest of North Korean refugees, who are then repatriated across the Tumen River and punished to death in North Korean gulags.
Welcome back, Chinasmack!
Where’s the headline about the “Silence Chipping Birds Operation” Fauna?
Move along citizen, nothing happened.
I don’t understand why they’d kill dogs with papers, that just doesn’t compute. This is over the top, and they just look stupid..
You’re right – this can’t really be compared with Tian’.nmen.
At Tian’.nmen it was the dogs that did the killing – not the other way around.
Well, even if there’s rabies, NOT ALL of the dogs have rabies. That’s like killing all the humans because some have swine flu(hehe). It’s stupid! Killing anything is not right. Humans just think that we’re all that, we’re not, we’re stupid and primitive. So get over yourself.
That’s like killing all the humans because some have swine flu(hehe).–
hehe.. see mexican quarantgene, my dear..
rabies is lethal in humans
hmmm..tasty dog sticks with spicy bamboo..like it..
so was me atacked by wild dogs back i time.. so do we have a dog at home.
no matter what this kind of hunt and beating pure animals to dead is criminal. where is the respect of life and living kind? were hunderts years of Buddha teaching not enough for our superior Han-konfunzians?
goverment should instal the animal population control system wich is working more itelegent and better outside of chinas shitholes. even mongols do controll their wild dog population without such insane actionism.
Don’t be too hard on yourself….very few guys here even know that, last year around 200 thousand kangaroos were culled in Australia by the government and no western liberal minded media and people complained in the west.
It is only when Chinese or Other asians do something that they start to complain.
It is in the best interest of China and Asia to not listen to liberal mined folks from the west.
I hate to disparage an entire country but India, you are a moron. The owners of some of those dogs might disagree with you about killing wild kangaroos being the same as killing pets! Oh and you obviously either can’t read or don’t know how to use google; type in kangaroo cull protest and you might find a few… 20,000-ish hits.
People we have another white activist preaching the sanity of what is right and what is wrong.
Do us a favor Monkey boy oops Mikey…Why don’t you look for some other topic to get your high. Do what you can..but the truth is…dogs will be culled in China and that’s a good thing..and all you can do is cry with your sorry white ass
Hey India, so next time you get sick with a cold we can exterminate you? Because you know….we shouldn’t have to be exposed to your sickness.
Hello people…a rabies outbreak? Seriously there are precautions to take and the government just needs to enforce them. Stupid Chinese.
What to say about this?, THIS COUNTRY JUST DISGUSTS ME! Let’s try to creat a province with no single human, starting from Yangxian county! %$#@!><
Kangaroo professor from India:
Usual lack of logic defending China side, the kangaroos present a genuine threat to the public good, maybe farming or whatever, otherwise they realyl wouldn’t bother managing the kangaroos, but you can be sure there is no good reason for the killing of the dogs, especially licenses ones. This is China, all you need to do is kill the loose wild dogs, but typicall over react by govenment and they kill everything they can. This is not about killing dgos it is about letting the violent men kill something other than people to let out there anger at society. That is what this is. Thos e men chsing the dogs would love to be beating people, so they let them beat some dogs to death to feed them the blood they need.
Listen to you “kangaroos” present a threat to the human civilization. Common, am’i on larry king now Good joke..keep up the humor…im buying it
Can you get rabies by eating infected meat?
There’s no way all that free protien went to waste. Have faith in Karma :P
5 fucking clowns with sticks trying to kill a dog. Now there is a job opportunity for the growing number of unemployed
What a bunch of barbarians!
Wow, a bunch of over reacting by a lot of people.
Whos fault is it for the strays getting so over populated and out of control in the first place? Not the dogs, they are trying to survive just like everything else.
I find it ironic that people try to play the ‘they had to do it for the survival of the human race’ card, when the human race is in a boom of over-population anyway and refusing to acknowledge that, or take responsibility for it.
Here’s an idea, if you want a pet, get it fixed. No puppies, less future strays by the people who abandon/loose their pet.
The killing of these animals was brought upon by the irresponsibility of people, and their own over reaction to fear. Yeah, rabies sucks, and it sucks when a person get infected with it.
But that is no excuse to kill perfectly healthy animals that were not strays. I don’t care who you are, no one has that right.
Just realize this people, the problem had always been there. You just waited far too long to do anything about it, and now you over reacted.
Take some responsibility. This goes to ALL people around the world.
The thing is…Chinese are fucking crazy about disease. They really get into sort of a mob-think when there is threat of anything. Like H1N1. Its nothing! I tell everyone that its nothing. But Chinese don’t believe me. When I returned from a trip to the US, my company’s HR assistant wanted me to go into quarantine. I told her to stop being an idiot.
Its sort of like there is something in their DNA which makes Chinese people extra afraid of anything that could be called “plague!”
Heh, I’m not sure if this applies to every individual Chinese but one thing is that China is very densely populated. Off the top of my head, there’s something like 7-9 cities in America with over 1 million people, but over 100 in China. It isn’t just absolute numbers either, it really is about density. Densely populated areas are far more susceptible to contagious diseases causing havoc. Then, as others have mentioned before, the Chinese are also keenly aware that they’re not too good on sanitation and hygiene overall as a by-product of poverty, low-education, and thus lower living standards. Given such facts of life, I’d probably be a bit nervous too, but you’re right that H1N1 is somewhat overhyped and a lot of the fears are actually unnecessary. The two kinda fed each other though. Shrug.
Totally agree with NoN, too dense population doesn’t give us the right to kill animals like that, Chinese shall take responsibility for being densely populated, It’s amazing to see people here would rather to kill than to use a condom!
There will be a massive Karmic avalanche on China… massive.
Ummm… are they crazy? Don’t they know that dogs = emergency food supply!
No such thing as karma, VeerLeft.
And for the DoS moaners – this article is plainly an allusion to 20 years back. Sheesh…
fucking disgusting people ! Fucking bastards ! All those fuckers should be hanged by their balls !
why?
Rabies is a serious matter and culls of animals in the interest of human health is for the good.
Hanging another human by their balls says alot about your psyche. Sexual mutilation as a response to a measured public health policy?
Look in the mirror, long long.
If they want to exterminate the dogs to rid the country of rabies (if it’s so big a problem), then as much as it sucks for the dogs, I guess it’s for the best.
HOWEVER, beating them to death with sticks is disgusting and cruel. I don’t care how long and expensive it would be, they should have driven around and collected the dogs and then euthenized them humanely.
A little bit of effort goes a long way…
What can you say? These people are fucking animals. Guess killing dogs by poisining food ingredients wasn’t good enough, might as well just start beating down every dog they can catch up to. And what is this bullshit about it being necessary? Like there are no other options to treat/contain rabies. Tell you what, good thing I am not there…we would see how many head shots I could get, and it sure as hell wouldnt be dogs. Now, let’s see who the first imbecile is who tries to start shit over my comments. Guarantee you it will be someone using broken ass butchered english. And here’s one for the haters-if you think this is acceptable behavior, go the hell back to your country.
I read that it was three — count ‘em, 3 — cases of rabies that prompted this pointless massacre.
What do the Chinese know about vaccinating their animals? What do they know about treating rabies (and yes, it can be treated)? All I see is fear and mass hysteria. Think about how much fear it would take to motivate you to grab a stick and run after dogs and beat them in the head, the ribs, the legs, while they yelp and bleed and stumble and whimper and seize up and fall. Think about keeping that up for a half hour, an hour, half a day. Think about how much anger, how much hysteria, how much sustained fear it takes to do that. That’s your epidemic, friends. The rabies can’t compare. And now all your dogs are dead. Who will protect you? You trust your neighbor, the one with the stick? You trust your government, the one that doesn’t give a rat’s ass about you?
I am sad for the people of this province, having to live with what they’ve done. There is no other species on the planet that behaves as hysterically as we do. We have a long way to go before we reach enlightenment.
Prayers for the fallen dogs and for the brainwashed children who looked on. Prayers for all of us, to heal this tendency toward hysteria and brutality.
-o-
1. china doesn’t have enough resources to vaccinate all stray dogs. even we have, exterminating all stray dogs is the most effective method when an epidemic is at door.
2. rabies can’t be cured. medic community can not explain the only cured case in US yet.
3. i am a dog lover too. but i love humanrace more.
Creepy. strange that China had enough money to pay for the olympic games, yet they cannot afford vaccinations fot their dogs. there is no excuse for what has been done. those men are evil scum and deserve a painful slow death themselves. Humans have no more right to a decent life than animals. The earth was not created for us you know.
raaies cannot be treated, rabies is the disease, Rabies immune globulin is to treat the bite hoping the virus does not enter the CNS
Creepy, you’re right: there is no cure once the signs of rabies appear. It is then inevitably fatal. However, the relatively long incubation period allows post-exposure therapy to be effective if done correctly. It involves a series of injections. It works.
As for exterminating strays, I understand that sometimes needs to be done. I don’t think it needs to be done to this extent — EVER — and certainly not in this manner, by citizens with sticks and clubs. Good god. There are humane ways to trap animals and put them down. My objection is to the mass hysteria and the pitiful torture, and what I still believe is a complete over-reaction on the part of Shaanxi.
What’s also needed here is education about vaccination and population control. A good spay and neuter program would go a long way in resolving overpopulation issues.
Chinese people should replace the dogs with government administrators. Hell all people of the world should grab their leaders and do them as these dogs. The world would be a better place.
For all the crap that goes on in the world that was brought on by the human race….we should be exterminated. What the hell did innocent animals ever do to deserve abuse? It’s how they are brought up that makes them mean or maybe the owners are neglectful and didn’t vaccinate them.
Don’t forget…at one time this was THEIR land. We are the intruders. I’m all for getting rid of some humans so animals can have their home back.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!! not just the chinese ppl, i mean yeah the freakin’ chinese ppl r killing these innocent dogs becuz their afraid of rabies!! and some chinese ppl r so afraid of dogs, even if they DON’T have freakin rabies, PATHETIC! but all races, all humans have done horrible things to animals, like don’t even try anymore.
obviously we can’t do anything to the chinese ppl. they obviously won’t listen. obviously other countries won’t listen if they don’t. wat the hell with them. its not all HUMANS HUMANS YEAH WE RULE ALL! yeh i mean we’re humans but is it fair to the animals…? i want those haters to think about that shit. and change their damn actions.
All rabies shit is just an excuse, from tianya and kaixin etc websites are now talking about the ” dog hunter army “gonna go into each house who has a dog hasn’t been registered in shanghai starting on Aug 27th , and actually of registered dog has already been killed on Aug14th, its all because of this year’s salary bonus is not enough for that related bureau, so they need this huge action to make up for the money they haven’t made, it is a legally permitted action & all supported by the government, yes maybe in other countries there are people abuse animal too, but they have laws to punish it, but only in this country we have laws to actually support abusing animals, that’s not just sickness!
So, when is human extinction campaign beginning with Yangxian going to be start?
Barbaric. There are other solutions to treat rabbid dogs other than beating them to death. These people don’t believe in a God otherwise they would respect his creations. They are resposible for the extinction of many species in their country , why not dogs? I hope one day they get what they deserve. I will boycott everything made in China and so will all my friends and family. We are human beings not Zombies.
I do agree with what your saying of course their actions aren’t because they didn’t believe in God.
Believe me Christians have done some horrible things too despite the fact they claim they are a peaceful religion. Like the Salem Witchcraft executions which not only killed “witches” but also many cats. The killing of thousands of people simply because they wouldn’t practice in the way of God.
China’s main religion is Buddhism(which they tried to drive out too)yet their religion believes in peace and harmony, but just like Christianity(and many other religions)we as a people who believed in them were very violent when people didn’t agree to our views.
What animal rights are you talking about in China they don’t even know what a fucking “ethics” means.
And when you tell them something in english even without understanding a thing, they would just say “yeah”.
Yeah! idots.

see what these fucking chinese do to animals?fuck you
china.FUCK YOU!
Fauna or Mop or whoever this article is from, please post the reason next time. There is no sense in posting DOGS ARE BEING SLAUGHTERED ON THE STREET AND HERE ARE SOME BLOODY PICTURES TO PROVE IT without mentioning why.
Please tell me why… 50-cent biatch!
Is it because the life of a human being is already cheap in the eyes of the Middle Kingdom and that of a dog is venturing into negative?
Seems ironic that there are so many dogs being slaughtered in order to protect the people from rabies. These “civilized” servants with their rabid reactions already perfectly mimic the symptoms of the disease they seek to destroy.
Very reminiscent of the scene in George Romero’s “Night of the Living Dead” Where the rednecks are burning the zombie corpses and toying with them in the end. Who’s the real monsters?
china is not ready for dog ownership, they do not clean their own shit off the sidewalk when they take a public dump. i have never seen a chinese person in china pick up their dog shit. they are disgusting dirty people. i love china but with 1.5 billion people and no grass or parks for miles in big cities, there will be shit everywhere
