Nujen poziv h končanju trgovine s pasjim in mačjim mesom ter okrepitvi zakonov o zaščiti živali

Vladi Ljudske Republike Kitajske

Pišemo, da bi izrazili svojo globoko skrb zaradi vztrajne in zelo razširjene krutosti, ki jo izvajajo nad psi in mačkami v kitajski trgovini z mesom. Spoštljivo pozivamo kitajsko vlado, naj resno in odločno ukrepa za rešitev tega problema.

Leta 2020, po izbruhu covida-19, je kitajsko Ministrstvo za kmetijstvo in podeželske zadeve naredilo pomemben korak, ko je umaknilo pse iz kategorije »živine« in jih premestilo v kategorijo »živali družabnic«. Vendar kljub temu napredku niso uvedli prepovedi uživanja pasjega mesa na ravni države. Trenutno samo v nekaj mestih, kot sta Shenzhen in Zhuhai, velja lokalna prepoved uživanja pasjega in mačjega mesa. Ta omejeni doseg pušča milijone živali ranljivih za krutost te trgovine.

Nedavni napredek zakonodaje v državah, kot je Južna Koreja, ki so uvedle prepovedi trgovine s pasjim mesom, poudarja rastoče svetovno zanimanje za izboljšanje dobrobiti živali. Kitajska ima zdaj priložnost, da pokaže svojo zavezanost sočutju in humanemu ravnanju z živalmi.

Spoštljivo prosimo, da kitajska vlada:

1. Prepove klanje, prodajo in uživanje psov in mačk po vsej državi;
2. Okrepi zakone o zaščiti živali, da bi preprečila krutost, zlorabo in zanemarjanje;
3. S kampanjami za ozaveščanje izobrazi javnost o krutosti trgovine s pasjim in mačjim mesom;
4. Podpre alternativne vire dohodka za tiste, ki trenutno delujejo na tem področju;
5. Sodeluje z mednarodnimi organizacijami za dobrobit živali pri razvoju humanih programov za upravljanje živali;
6. Naslovi tveganja za javno zdravje, vključno s širjenjem stekline in drugih zoonotskih bolezni;
7. Konča krute prakse te trgovine, vključno s klanjem, nehumanim prevozom in zapiranjem živali v natrpanih, nehigieničnih pogojih.

S temi ukrepi Kitajska ne bo samo zaščitila živali, temveč bodo ti tudi koristili globalni podobi in gospodarstvu Kitajske. Če se bo Kitajska zavezala dobrobiti živali, bo:

• izboljšala svoj ugled kot sočutna in napredna država;
• privabila etični turizem in naložbe;
• izboljšala mednarodne trgovinske odnose;
• se uskladila z globalnimi standardi zaščite živali.

Trgovina s pasjim in mačjim mesom na Kitajskem vzbuja resne skrbi glede dobrobiti živali. Spoštljivo prosimo kitajsko vlado, naj razmisli, da bi naredila smiselne korake v smeri naslavljanja te teme in okrepila zakone o zaščiti živali. Spletna peticija je pritegnila znatno mednarodno pozornost, pri čemer je več kot 160.000 zagovornikov po vsem svetu izrazilo podporo, in to število se še naprej veča. https://chng.it/kQ6scJKFwH

Zavezujemo se, da bomo spremljali napredek te zadeve in gojili konstruktiven dialog, katerega namen bo izboljšanje dobrobiti živali na Kitajskem.

S spoštovanjem,

(vaše ime in priimek, mesto, država)

Urgent Appeal to End the Dog and Cat Meat Trade and Strengthen Animal Protection Laws

To: The Government of The People’s Republic of China

We are writing to express our profound concern regarding the persistent and widespread cruelty inflicted upon dogs and cats within China’s meat trade. We respectfully urge the Chinese government to take substantive and decisive action to address this issue.

In 2020, following the COVID-19 outbreak, China’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs made a significant step by reclassifying dogs as “companion animals,” removing them from the category of “livestock.” However, despite this progress, a nationwide ban on dog meat consumption has not been implemented. Currently, only a few cities, such as Shenzhen and Zhuhai, have enacted local bans on the consumption of dog and cat meat. This limited scope leaves millions of animals vulnerable to the cruelties of the trade.

Recent legislative developments in countries like South Korea, which have enacted bans on the dog meat trade, highlight a growing global interest in advancing animal welfare. China now has an opportunity to demonstrate its commitment to compassion and the humane treatment of animals.

We respectfully request the Government of China to:

1. Ban the slaughter, trade, and consumption of dogs and cats nationwide.
2. Strengthen animal protection laws to prevent cruelty, abuse, and neglect.
3. Educate the public through awareness campaigns on the cruelty of the dog and cat meat trade.
4. Support alternative livelihoods for those currently involved in the trade.
5. Collaborate with international animal welfare organizations to develop humane animal management programs.
6. Address public health risks, including the spread of rabies and other zoonotic diseases.
7. Stop the brutal practices of this trade, including slaughter, inhumane transport, and holding of animals in cramped, unsanitary conditions.

Taking these actions will not only protect animals but also benefit China’s global image and economy. By committing to animal welfare, China will:

• Enhance its reputation as a compassionate and progressive nation.
• Attract ethical tourism and investment.
• Improve international trade relationships.
• Align with global standards of animal protection.

The dog and cat meat trade in China raises significant concerns regarding animal welfare. We respectfully ask the Chinese government to consider taking meaningful steps to address this matter and strengthen animal protection laws. An online petition has garnered substantial international attention, with over 160,000 advocates worldwide expressing their support, and that number continues to increase. https://chng.it/kQ6scJKFwH

We are committed to following the progress of this issue and fostering constructive dialogue aimed at improving animal welfare in China.

Sincerely,

[Your name, city, country]
