China: Defenseless dogs scream in agony as they are boiled ALIVE - May They Rot In Hell
Wildlife Planet Will NOT place this video on our site. It's too sickening to watch and we would not want someone not intending to view it be harmed by inadvertently seeing it.
People gather round to watch as the greyhound is carried to the boiling cauldron by three men at a busy Chinese market. But one little boy watches in horror as the dog is lowered on a stick into the water, as many in the crowd laugh. The dog howls in terror and makes desperate attempts to escape. It takes two men to hold down a lid until the animal is dead. Animal rights campaigner Michele Brown said: “This animal died the worst death imaginable. |

“You can see raw fear in the dog’s eyes as its carried towards the boiling water.
“As they drop the dog into the water it screams for help, skin burning and blistering. It flails around so much, two strong men have to hold on to the lid.
“The young boy is an innocent child and he appears to be repulsed by what he saw.
"He was scared but unfortunately this probably won’t be the last time he will see a dog being boiled alive.”
These horrific video scenes have been highlighted by Michele’s animal rights group Fight Dog Meat in an effort to pressure the Chinese Government into introducing anti-cruelty laws.
At least 10 million dogs – many of which are stolen family pets – are killed for their meat every year in China, according to campaigners.
But the trail of neglect and cruelty leads back to our shores, claims another activist.
She says – although the exact history of the dog is unknown – the greyhound in the video was probably once a racing dog and could be originally from Ireland.
A British-based animal-rights group has uncovered a disturbing transportation network originating in Ireland and ending up in the Far East.
Rita James, from pressure group Caged NW, said: “The evidence shows Irish greyhounds are ending up there and we believe without the right legislation British dogs could also be sent.
“There is currently no protection for greyhounds that are bred for the racing industry, and no traceability for dogs that are no longer registered to race, or do not make the grade.
“This means they can go off the radar to be destroyed in the most horrific ways.
"The racing industry should be responsible for all greyhounds bred for racing, from cradle to grave.”
The cruelty of this video to Western eyes stems from the beliefs of a very different culture to ours.
"And it must be acknowledged that millions of Westerners eat meats considered offensive to other nations and religions.
Dogs are slaughtered by being boiled alive, skinned alive or bludgeoned to death.
Sometimes animals are tied down or have their leg tendons slashed to prevent them from running away.
Michele said: “They say pain at death makes the meat better quality and tougher. It is also seen as a boost to the male libido.
“I have had it said to my face ‘when men eat tough meat, it makes them tough’.
“In the video there were a number of spectators laughing and I find that quite disturbing.”
The video was discovered by the charity on a Chinese multimedia website last month, but it is not known who took the video or when exactly it was filmed.
The sick boiling video is the latest in a string of shocking animal cruelty cases to emerge from China.
Another video from China posted in January this year showed a dog being cooked alive in a boiling wok as it tried to scramble out, and another distressing video showed a fully conscious dog being blow torched to scrape its fur away as it tries to escape.
