FATCAT 60,886 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Taiwan has passed landmark animal protection laws imposing fines for the consumption of dog and cat meat as well as jail time for those who kill and torture animals. The Animal Protection Act amendments approved by the Legislative Yuan on Tuesday punish the sale, purchase or consumption of dog or cat meat with fines ranging from NT$50,000 to NT$2 million. The amendment's sponsor, Kuomintang Legislator Wang Yu-min, said that while some localities already had measures banning dog and cat meat consumption, national legislation was needed. She noted that Taiwan was the first country in Asia to pass such legislation. http://www.chinapost.com.tw/taiwan/national/national-news/2017/04/11/495349/Taiwan-becomes.htm This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Jail time for those who kill and torture animals." I would like to see killing factories get shut down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeka 12,372 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 This is really amazing, though I tried to ignore the fact that there was an actual reason for this to pass. Trying to get all the images of people eating cats and dogs from my mind. I can sense the vegans coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
