Yulin 2016
The Yulin Meat Festival, is an event that marks the summer solstice by eating dogs and lychees.
This tradition in China sees the slaughter of 10.000 dogs each year, with about 300 of them slaughtered each day leading up to the festival on June 21. The consumption of dog and cat meat in China is legal.
The dogs are piled on top of each other in cages, and many of them suffer horrendous injures and die in transport due to the filthy conditions. The majority of the animals appear to be stolen pets with collars still on, completely unaware they are about to be slaughtered.
Once the festival kicks off, the dogs are clubbed over the head or have their throats slit, and then are thrown into boiling water. A brutal scence that all the other dogs must watch.
Unfortunately, according to reports from last year, it seems that this brutal trade and practise in an all-year occurrence in Yulin with 10 million dogs consumed each year.
