Dogs Killed in Cruel Ways in Mauritius

Mauritius wants tourists to think of it as an island paradise. But for dogs, it's hell on Earth.

PETA has teamed up with International Animal Rescue to release footage showing dogs killed in cruel and painful ways.

Workers restrain the animals using a crude noose on a stick and then give them a lethal injection – an apparent attempt to puncture the heart – without anaesthetics. All this happens in full view of other dogs who frantically try to escape before they endure the same fate. This procedure is condemned by the international veterinary community because it often causes dogs to die slowly and in extreme pain.

Take action against this cruel killing method and urge the government to introduce humane dog-population management that focuses on sterilisation: http://petauk.org/mauritius.
