Video: Forest fire in Uljin-gun County of badly burned dogs imprisoned in raised wire cages at dog meat farms. Many dogs were burned to death. Heartless dog farmers evacuated from the fire, leaving dogs trapped in cages with no way to escape. Coexistence of Animal Rights on Earth (CARE).

ABC News reported on March 4, 2022:
“Thousands of South Korean firefighters and troops were battling a large wildfire on Saturday that tore through an eastern coastal area and temporarily threatened a nuclear power station and a liquified natural gas plant. The fire, which began Friday morning on a mountain in the seaside town of Uljin and has spread across more than 6,000 hectares (14,800 acres) to the nearby city of Samcheok, destroyed at least 159 homes and 46 other buildings and prompted the evacuation of more than 6,200 people…. There were no immediate reports of injuries or deaths.”

People were able to evacuate but the thousands of dogs imprisoned in raised wire cages are left to die a horrible death. This happens all too often in South Korea. What these dogs have to experience is unimaginable horror and tragedy!

In Uljin and Samcheok area, there are numerous dog farms and dog slaughterhouses.

The Coexistence of Animal Rights on Earth (CARE) team rushed to the area to survey the conditions of these dog farms.

Below is CARE’s post from one of the dog farms they visited.

A forest fire in Uljin had reached the dogs imprisoned in their locked cages at dog meat farms.

The dogs at this farm were barely alive, clinging to life after being badly burned. They are enduring unimaginable pain but are still licking each other’s wounds.

Dosa puppies, probably not even 6 months old, bred as meat, were seriously injured in the wildfire that spread to their cages.

Adult dogs were charred to death in the next cage or suffocated to death from inhaling smoke.

In horror and pain, starving, injured sibling dogs endured pain by licking each other. More seriously burned puppies died shortly after.

This is hell. We will rescue some of them.

Even if 150 were to be quarantined by the county (Uljin County has not taken any action yet), the county government will not properly treat the burned dogs, so CARE had to make another difficult decision to rescue the injured puppies.

We decided to rescue, transport, and treat six seriously injured puppies with burns.

It’s going to be very expensive. We are asking for your help.

We would appreciate any help for the dogs who have suffered burns and smoke inhalation so much that they need oxygen masks and have to go into oxygen rooms.

Today, sick dogs are being taken to the hospital. We are grateful to Dog Dream for your solidarity with CARE in this treatment and protection activities. CARE will remain on-site to take care of the dogs who have been starving for the last two days. We will update you again later.

“살아남았지만 죽어가는 불에 탄 개들, 서로 핥아주며 고통을 참는 중”

이제 6개월 정도의 아직 어린 티를 벗지 못한 도사들은 인간의 식용을 위한 도살을 앞두고 화마가 덮쳐 크게 다쳤습니다.

옆 칸, 다 자란 성견 도사들은 새까맣게 타서 죽거나 연기를 흡입해 질식사 하기도 하였습니다.

공포와 고통 속에서 굶주린 상태로 다친 형제 개들은 서로 핥아주며 고통을 인내하고 있습니다. 핥아 준 보람도 없이 가장 심한 녀석은 조금 후 죽어버렸습니다.

아비규환 속입니다.구조하겠습니다.

만일 150마리가 격리조치가 된다고 해도 화상입은 개들을 군청에서 제대로 치료하지 못할 것이기에 케어는 다시 어려운 구조 결정을 내릴 수밖에 없었습니다.

심하게 다친 6마리의 화상입은 개들을 구조하여 이동하고 치료하기로 하였습니다.
막대한 비용이 들 것 같습니다.
산소마스크 및 산소방에 들어가야 할 정도로 연기를 많이 마시고 화상을 입은 개들을 위해 도움 주시면 감사하겠습니다.

오늘 아픈 개들은 무조건 병원으로 이동합니다.

치료와 보호활동에 케어와 함께 연대하시는 독드림에 감사드립니다.

케어는 현장에 남아 2일째 굶고 있는 개들을 돌보겠습니다.
봉사 공지는 다시 하겠습니다.
공유하고 부디 함께 힘 모아 주세요!🙏🏼

    Dieses asiatische Land Südkorea ist ein Land, in dem die Technik fortgeschritten ist, aber was Mitgeschöpfe, Hunde/Katzen und deren Behandlung anbetrifft, lebt es immer noch im Mittelalter. Wie kann ein fortschrittliches, zivilisiertes Land hilflosen Tieren so viel Unrecht, Leid, Qualen und Schmerzen zufügen. Dass diese Hunde/Katzen Höllen in Südkorea Mafiagesteuert sind, ist weltbekannt, aber dass die Regierung dieses Landes entweder nicht gewillt oder in der Lage ist, diesem Elend gesetzlich ein Ende zu bereiten, ist unfassbar und indiskutabel, geschweige denn hinzunehmen. Ich fordere die Regierung des Landes auf, endlich verantwortungsbewusst und human zu handeln und mit scharfen Gesetzen und Strafen bei Verletzung dieser, vor zu gehen. Ich nenne es eine große Schande , wie dieses Land mit seinen hilflosen Mitgeschöpfen umgeht.

    It always shocks me to see how people treat their animal proteges. In one comment it was already clearly pointed out how abstruse it is that people in a country where war is being waged try to save their animal friends. In another country, they are regularly tortured to death in front of potential buyers or boiled alive to be eaten. They stay in their cages and burn when forest fires take place and feel what? Even then, their immense loyalty, their cry for help is clear in their eyes. There the animals do not differ from each other. Korea, be ashamed of what you put on the outside. For your disgusting double standards, your pop culture, the glamour you wear on your skin, but the rot that lives in the veins of your society. Shame on you for the values you pass on to your children, for the hatred, the blunt violence towards tender, compassionate beings. In essence, you yourselves are already dead.
