BALI'S DOG MEAT TRADE AND ANIMAL ABUSE PROBLEM ***Graphic images!!!!!!!*****



Nearly 200 dogs a day are currently being slaughtered and consumed in Bali, BAWA estimates. That’s around 70,000 a year.



According to AA, the practice of consuming dog meat is not a long-held Balinese tradition, but was brought to the island by minorities who came to work in the hospitality industry in the 1970s.



Along the beaches in South Bali, unsuspecting tourists may also unknowingly purchase dog sate, as sellers may simply pass them off as chicken sate in a bid to make profits.

Until this heartbreaking, cruel practice is stopped. They even beat the poor dogs before killing them, thinking that would improve the flavor of the dog meat!! 😠😠

Tourism-related business makes up 80% of the economy; therefore, if people boycotted, this horrific practice would stop.

I know some world travelers but not any one who's ever been to Indonesia.

Thanks for posting, Cattledog.
