Korea, the IDA team spotted three dogs of smallish
size and one a little bigger and decided to rescue them from this sordid and ghastly landscape. The farmer roughly, almost violently, grabbed each one and dropped them into a wheelbarrow. After taking the four dogs to a nearby shelter in Masuk, the team noticed that the bigger dog, who was christened Yuna, had a very large scar on the back of her neck. The farmer had told us earlier that he moved her into the cage with the smaller dogs, because a larger dog in another cage had bitten her. We later learned that she would have been a bargain sale as damaged goods. We also discovered during a vet visit that it was much more likely she was badly scorched during an attempt to burn her alive. Yuna is now with a rescue group in Las Vegas, joyously running around with her new canine mates. Biko (now Milo) and Jenny have been adopted. Mimi is being fostered. 3010 Kerner Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 P: 415.448.0048 F: 415.454.1031 Yuna, an IDA Rescue photo courtesy of Kombucha Dog RESPONSIBLY PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER WI TH SOY- BASED INK.

Every cat is a story. Demonized and doomed, cats are tortured and murdered in the darkest of places, far removed from public view. Many have their legs broken so they cant escape. The $2 billion dollar-a-year South Korean dog and cat meat industry slaughters approximately two and a half million dogs a year for meat or gaesoju, a dog wine or broth, and thousands of cats for so-called health tonics or goyangyeesoju, and soup. Dogs are killed with high-voltage electrocution, which takes anywhere from thirty seconds to three minutes, hanged, and even beaten to death, because of the prevailing myth that the greater the suffering the more tender and tastier the meat, and that the mythical health properties are enhanced. Cats are often bludgeoned and thrown into boiling water while still alive. Dogs are most often killed in front of other dogs. At the farms, dogs are fed germ-infested, rotting, and fermented human leftovers, a health risk to both the dogs and those who eat them. According to a South Korean vet, These dogs are not fed a standard diet appropriate for dogs. Therefore, poisonous substances from these dogs can be contagious to humans. And when these chemicals accumulate in our body, it can cause very serious health problems. Dog meat that is contaminated with germs such as Salmonella is not safe even when you boil or steam it because the germ can survive and cause diseases to humans. In open-air markets, dogs are held in horribly overcrowded pens, sometimes next to the carcasses of their slaughtered cage mates. Any dog can end up in the meat trade, including animal companions, dispelling the myth that there are two types of dogs: edible or meat dogs and animal companions. As a former dog trader says, Pet dogs are cheaper because they are sold per dog and not by the pound. When you butcher them you cant tell whether they are pet dogs or meat dogs. An estimated 20,000 restaurants serve dog meat soup or boshintang. Considered a delicacy, only a small percentage of South Koreans eat dog meat regularly. That still accounts for over 100,000 tons of dog meat annually. Individual animals. Killed one at a time. There are no laws or regulations on how to safely or humanely slaughter dogs for food. The breeding of dogs for consumption is legal, but the processing of them for food is not. In short, dog meat remains technically illegal but sanctioned by the South Korean government. Every dog is a story. And in South Korea, we know the endings for millions of dogs who are subjected to the most unimaginable agony until their last breath, spending their lives at grim and squalid dog meat farmsthe very bowels of existence with their rotten smell of human injustice and cruelty. ey come to sorrow in these hellish places, imprisoned in lthy and desolate cages, where the puppies will soon be separated from their mothers, all awaiting their fate. e accumulation of so much grief, so many lives snued out, extinguished, day aer day, year aer year, for food.

[ENGLISH] Why is it acceptable to eat cows, pigs, and chickens, but not dogs? A: Currently, cows, pigs, and chickens are being raised in factory farms, which thwart every natural instinct, causing them unbearable physical and emotional stress. We should therefore not increase the number of animals subjected to such punishingly cruel treatment. The factory farm system also causes grave problems for the environment and is the root cause of such illnesses as foot-and-mouth disease, avian u, and BSE. Reducing meat consumption is already a signicant trend.
