China: Dogs 'Clubbed To Death @ Abattoirs'

Kiyo: Investigators for Animal Equality said they gained access to slaughterhouses in Zhanjiang and Leizhou, which it says are used, with others, to kill tens of thousands of dogs every day.

A spokesman for Animal Equality said: "The shocking images show terrified dogs kept in appalling conditions ... before being brutally beaten with wooden clubs and stabbed to death in full view of other dogs (which) await their turn."

Dog meat is believed to have been eaten for thousands of years in China and is especially popular in the winter, as it is believed to warm the body.

The meat, which some Chinese believe has medicinal properties, is sold for up to 40 yen (£4.20) per 500g at stalls in Zhanjiang, investigators said.

Animal Equality says more than 10 million dogs are killed every year in China, although other estimates put the number at closer to 16 million.
