ARAN Activists Condemn Korean Cat and Dog Torture

category dublin | animal rights | event notice author Wednesday June 22, 2005 19:44author by John Carmody - Animal Rights Action Network (ARAN)author email arancampaigns at eircom dot netauthor address ARAN, Po Box 722, Kildare, Irelandauthor phone 087-6275579 Report this post to the editors

Members of ARAN Barking Mad Outside South Korean Embassy

Please help ARAN help animals.

Dublin — Members of Animal Rights Action Network (ARAN) will join activists from Argentina to Tanzania to “beg” the Korean Government to enforce laws prohibiting the beating, hanging, burning, electrocution, and boiling alive of dogs and cats for consumption.

Date: Friday, July 15
Time: 1pm – 2pm
Place: Korean Embassy - 15 Clyde Road, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, Ireland.

South Korea’s laws prohibiting the consumption of dogs and cats have been routinely ignored and disregarded by law enforcement. Korea’s Ministry for the Office of Government Policy Coordination announced in January that it was to begin inspecting dog meat for sanitation, thus giving dog meat its seal of approval. The Government promised that it was backing away from this deplorable plan in February after being inundated with thousands of letters, phone calls, and e-mails from concerned citizens and animal protectionists around the world. However, the Government is once again leaning toward supporting the Ministry’s back door efforts to legalize dog meat.

Before dogs are killed for meat, they are often strung up by their legs and beaten. Dog butchers extol the virtues of their product, linking the adrenaline rush dogs experience as they are bludgeoned to death to enhanced male virility. Cats fare no better—viewed as pest animals, they are boiled alive so their “juices” can be extracted for supposed health tonics which butchers claim can be used to treat rheumatism.

“It’s inconceivable that as the rest of the world is strengthening animal protection laws, the Korean Government is allowing ‘man’s best friends’ to be boiled alive, beaten, butchered, and eaten under its knowing watch,” says ARAN Founder John Carmody.

Eating dogs rather than the treatment of them seems to be the main isssue, would you really want to destroy an intergral part of another culture's culinary traditions?

author by Siobhan Higgins - ARANpublication date Mon Jul 18, 2005 17:19author email shevaun83 at yahoo dot co dot ukauthor address author phone Report this post to the editors

Yates - please read the summary of the demonstration once again. The way the Korean's are eating dogs and cats is not acceptable - FYI - the dog is skinned alive and then roasted slowly; this is thought to improve the taste of the meat. Cats are boiled alive until they are liquidated into cat "juice". So Yates -do you call this culture? ARAN protests for the rights of ALL animals not just dogs and cats. What the Koreans are doing to their animals is NOT culture - it is cruelty at the highest stakes. Please do not support this and check your facts next time you want to make a statement about other cultures "culinary traditions".

Lobsters are boiled alive too ? Do they have rights as well or are crustaceans being discriminated against ?

And so are crabs. Anyone up for a demo outside "Celebrity Fishmonger" Cavistons in Glasthule?

Theres probably some "claws" against this in their constitution . Celebrity fishmongers probably arent a legitimate target . The wrong time and Plaice for a demo .

I believe the previous poster has hijacked my genuine concern for the plight of lobsters and is only acting the cod . His post is a red herring .

Sorry. it warmed the cockles of my heart, so i was trying to stay in tuna with the general thrust of your argument, and not skate on thin ice. I'll scale it down.

I think the animal rights crowd are barking up the wrong tree on this one . Derek R , despite his optimism doesnt seem to be any closer to persuading millions of koreans to stop eating their household pets . Or us to stop munching cows pigs and chickens and little baby lambs , which taste absolutely gorgeous with new potatos .

mmmmmmm

I am a strict vege, have been all my life, I don't have a problem with people eating meat as long as they feel they could kill it themselves instead of needing it neatly packaged. On the score of dogs, I think the difference between that and a calf is that most animals that are consumed are mostly vegitarian, if it eats flesh, don't eat it!!
