460,000 eating dogs

Recently, wild dogs have been appearing frequently in urban areas, increasing social anxiety.

This is the issue of edible dogs that will remain after the Dog Meat End Act, which will take effect in 2027.

Although the amount of compensation, which will exceed 100 billion won in next year's budget alone, is large, experts are more seriously concerned about the management problem of dogs that will be left behind after the end of dog meat consumption.

Last May, the government counted about 466,000 dogs nationwide, but the actual number is estimated to be higher if undeclared dogs are included.

This week, amidst the ongoing problem of wild dogs in the city, we will look at realistic measures and necessity for managing 460,000 dogs for consumption after the implementation of the policy banning dog meat.
