Officials says move reflects bond between pets and people – ‘the consensus of all human civilisation’ – rather than coronavirus fears

Shenzhen is set to become the first city in mainland China to ban the eating of dogs and cats, if a draft regulation released by the municipal government in a wider push to restrict the consumption of wild animals is approved.

About time they do please.

There is no 'humane' way to slaughter an animal. It all leads to the same thing: death. Let's stop trying to make it sound better by using the word 'humane'.

charlievondevon Thank God!

Welcome to 2020 we waited so long!

Some people would eat shit on a stick!

It's about time!! This sickening habit of eating animals has given rise to diseases all over the world!!

Appalling!

That's the right way to put it, the consenses of human civilisation. Dogs don't try and eat us, and we don't try and eat them. And cats guard the stash.

Sadly they had to learn hard way

Some people eat dog in Switzerland

Because of the fact that they have ever eaten a cat or a dog tells me we shit the wrong border. They deserve death by corona virus and they deserve to be completely cut off from the rest of the world. Sick and twisted people.

it's been a very long tradition and culture to eat all kinds of things in China I would recommend the sea slug and crocodile

Don't eat 🐶

Dogs & cats, what about the rats. Are they still on the menu?

Fruits,nuts and vegetables are best healthy food I always prefer them

Better late than never.

How classy for a developed country.

Ya think 🤷🏼‍♀️

Good news!

Let's hope so and the rest to follow would be wonderful!

This is UNBELIEVABLE 🤢 I’d always thought those stories were made up. 30millionsdamis

About time. They live like animals, breed fatal viruses and they’ll eat anything. They skin animals alive for their fur. Sick Sociopaths. They have no care for animals..except Pandas.

Acquisitive

The Swiss eat cats and dogs

And they wonder why they spreed disgusting Diseases

pablo_869 That’s numbers 21 to 44 and 63 to 74 off the menu!

Come on, dogs and cats shouldn’t responsible for human ills.

Xristos10818751 goddamn savages.

Well about fu$ng time!!

Believe it when I see it. Disgusting people

Eating dogs is part of their culture. We only see it as odd because we keep them as pets. We eat cows here. In India where the cow is seen as a sacred animal, I'm sure they strongly disagree with this. Now, how would we react to the suggestion of a ban on these products?

It was about time!!

Good!

PC gone mad.

Finally! Wish it also bans purchasing Elephants tusks, Rhinos’ horns and Sharks fins, since China’s demand is bringing these wild animals to verge of extinction

What is wrong with people!!

All of China should put a ban. Warning. If they don’t more strange virus will hit China and claim more lives. Fair warning.

Hmmm... I lived in Sichuan province for 5 years and it was officially banned there. Though that didn’t stop people from eating them.

How about Donkey meat and Bat soup, too? UGH!

Disgusting people they eat anything with 4 legs except a table

That's a good start Shenzhen. Could you add bats, pangolins, sharks, etc, etc.,.....to your list of banned foods as well please? If your regime drives people to famines and eating such you get coronaviruses don't you?

That's ruff 🐶✌😎🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🌈🌏 CoronaVirusUpdates coronavirus COVIDー19

China did the same thing after SARS too. Apparently it didn’t work out and led to an increase of black markets. Maybe they should educate their people not to eat inedible wild animals first? 🤷🏻‍♀️

This is a good decision.

Well let’s not overreact

On the one hand, yay. But (and I’m not a vegan, or even a vegetarian) tbh cows and sheep and chickens and pigs are every bit as lovable, sensitive & affectionate as cats and dogs. It’s really not any more monstrous to eat dog meat than it is to eat bacon sarnies or Sunday Roast.

Civilization is not about pets. This nonsense is out of control. 'Man is the measure of all things.'

One city? That's not even a *start*. A start would be to ban crapping in the holes in the streets. DirtyAnimals

🤞🏻🙏🏻

Well that’s bloody generous of them. Disgusting

Well that’s a big Meow and Woof

tiny step to civilized society.... hahaha

Still not banned?!!!!! They can eat whatever shit they want but c'mon cats and dogs? WTF!

Animal markets fuel wars.

It should be banned in the WHOLE country since forever

TOFU and large amounts of GINGER, leave the meat alone for a year.

THANK THE DIETY. PICK ONE ANIMAL CANNIBALS. FINALLY! GROW UP SAVAGES USE BIRTH CONTTOL.

şimdi mi aklınıza geldi or*spu cocukları

Good job, Shenzhen!

Chinese....they should eat each other

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

La influencia de janarhertz en la ciudad! (?)

It's damn time!

Yr inko koi seeda kam q ni ata
