A List Of Animals Consumed By Humans Each Year; It Will Surprise And Sadden You

Blame the Red Chinese for all the dog and cat consumption and the French for the snails. Although accurate figures are difficult to obtain, China is believed to be responsible for the majority of global cases of cat and dog slaughter. Each year, around four million cats and 10 million dogs are believed to be slaughtered in the country. The Humane Society says the majority are stolen pets and strays that are captured and kept in cages. The tradition of eating dogs dates back thousands of years, even though they are often kept as pets.
