You may have heard that “in Springfield, they’re eating the dogs,” but did you know that in the Muslim world, they’re exterminating them — by the millions? In early January, it was reported that a whopping three million dogs were going to be killed in Morocco:
A top conservationist has condemned Morocco and urged FIFA to take action over the slaughter of three million street dogs ahead of the 2030 World Cup… Reports suggest thousands of stray dogs have already been massacred in venues across the North African nation, with fears the killings are escalating.
In a letter to FIFA, Jane Goodall, a prominent animal rights campaigner, accused the organization of ignoring “a horrific act of barbarity” and “large-scale killings… [Y]ou have been presented with detailed dossiers documenting these horrific acts [of dog slayings], most of which are conducted in the most brutal and cruel fashion imaginable, and yet appear to have ignored them.”
Sadly, such barbaric behavior against what is otherwise considered “man’s best friend” is not uncommon in the Muslim world.
