Anyone that knows me knows I’m all about animals (shout to my baby Bijan), so this is very bothersome to me. There has to be a different, better way??? Killing dogs shouldn’t be the answer. Sochi plans a mass killing of stray dogs ahead of Winter Olympics and will kill them throughout the Olympics. This is terrible. Hit the jump for details…
Via NYDN:
A pest control company which has been killing stray dogs in Sochi for years told The Associated Press on Monday that it has a contract to exterminate more of the animals throughout the Olympics.
Alexei Sorokin, director general of pest control firm Basya Services, said his company is involved in what he described as the “catching and disposing” of dogs. Sorokin refused to specify whether they shoot or poison dogs or say where they take the carcasses.
Sorokin said he attended a rehearsal of the Olympic opening ceremony last week and saw a stray dog walking in on the performers.
“A dog ran into the Fisht Stadium, we took it away,” he said. “God forbid something like this happens at the actual opening ceremony. This will be a disgrace for the whole country.”
