Horrifying images and footage have emerged, showing street dogs being rounded up in Turkey to be killed or left to starve to death in filthy cages

I take Children's lives over tourists any day.
Tourists dont live in fear of street dogs roaming in packs. But the locals constantly do.
They can go get stuffed. If they care ao much about stray dogs then they should let them roam in their own countries lets see how their tune changes.
Ask these same people to boycott China and East Asia, where dogs are even reared for "consumption"..... oh wait they wont. Turks singled out again....but these people also dislike the social conservative types in developed world too that live in more reality.
Street dogs that are attacking people and even killing kids leave little option as they are just going to do it again and again now that they got a habit for it.
Even in wildlife, the bear that has attacked or killed a person needs to be put down....same with maneater tiger etc. History has long shown they dont lose this habit once it starts.
Close friend of mine from rural Canada (same guy out of two I described earlier getting hounded up a tree literally by the wild pack)... had to put down one family dog once it started going really senile/demented (sadly) and started nipping/biting them. It was just going to keep getting worse. Hard decision, had to be done. Most other dogs they had didnt turn out that way....it just happens. So when there is no human intervention/training at all with street dogs, their compulsions can turn against people big time if allowed even without the aging factor kicking in....there are simply other compulsions given dogs originated from wolves.
I say this as big supporter of animals (domesticated and wild) and wildlife.... the extremists here are nutty, they dont put human life as basic sacrosanct thing over the broader animal kingdom.....yet they dont go out and live in the wild themselves and practice what they preach.
These hypocrisies have developed everywhere in privileged circles, people that dont understand basic reality....and are led by some dumb emotional compulsion no matter how stupid it is, because it feels good to them.
You are right, children and Turkish citizen lives matter much more than these overfestered hypocrites shaking some dollars in tourism.
