Please watch this video: https://youtu.be/_ZVQjgGb4RQ. It is terribly disheartening that South Korea has laws to protect dogs and cats from abuse, but it blithely ignores them. 2.5 million dogs and thousands of cats are electrocuted, strangled, beaten to death each year for human consumption in South Korea. Would you please use your platform to raise awareness about this horrible atrocity? More info: www.koreandogs.org

Sample Letter

Dear Editor,
Thank you for your article on the South Korean Dog and Cat Campaign (include the title of the article and the date that it ran). It is terribly disheartening that the South Korean Government has laws to protect dogs and cats from abuse, but it blatantly ignores its laws. Two and a half million South Korean dogs are electrocuted, strangled, boiled often while still alive, or beaten to death each year. They are killed in the cruelest ways imaginable because of the insidious myth that the more an animal suffers, the more tender and tastier the meat and that so-called medicinal properties will be enhanced. Thousands of cats are also slaughtered for soups and “health” tonics. While the practice of eating dogs and cats is not widely accepted in South Korea, it is up to the South Korean government to ensure that this practice is completely eradicated. Caring citizens worldwide, including South Koreans, should not sit back while dogs are beaten to death for a tastier meal and cats suffer agonizing deaths.
Sincerely,
