🇨🇳 THINKING OF VISITING CHINA? ANIMAL LOVERS, PLEASE READ. China has an extraordinary amount to offer tourists. Thousands of years of history, breathtaking landscapes, incredible food, and fascinating cities. But there is a darker side that animal lovers should know about. China still lacks a comprehensive national law against animal cruelty. Deliberately torturing a dog or cat is not, by itself, a criminal offense under national law. As a result, perpetrators of horrific abuse can escape punishment. 🐕 Wang Wang, a mother dog, was brutally killed and reportedly burned alive in June 2026. Her three puppies were murdered alongside her. 🐈 Fireball (Miiko), a kitten just two months old, was reportedly tortured and skinned alive. Her suffering was filmed and circulated online. These are just two stories among countless victims of animal cruelty. The true scale of the suffering is unknown. And without meaningful legal protections, many perpetrators face little or no accountability. If you’re considering visiting China, I ask you to think about this before booking your trip. Tourism brings billions of dollars into China’s economy every year. Where we choose to spend our money is a personal decision, but it’s worth considering the values and practices we’re willing to overlook. China has made extraordinary progress in so many areas. Yet its most vulnerable animals remain without basic protections against deliberate cruelty. Please consider that reality when deciding where to spend your tourism dollars. Modern country. Modern laws. #China #AnimalWelfare #AnimalCruelty #JusticeForWangWang #china #chinatourism #chinacool #chinatravel #chinagram #discoverchina #visitchina
