There is
the data about animals abandoned in Hong Kong. “The Agriculture, Fisheries and
Conservation Department (AFCD) handles between 5,000- 7,000 stray dogs
annually. In 2011, the department handled 5,800 stray dogs and 3,557 stray
cats; 852 dogs and 205 cats were re-homed through animal welfare organisations.
The majority of stray animals are put down if homes cannot be found for them.”
(2015, SPCA) That is shows the problems of animals abandoned are so seriously
in Hong Kong. However, I do not agree that the pet of abandoned pass it to the
SPCA. They cannot take care all the pets in SPCA for the long time. They will
put it down if pets cannot find a home. I do not think that is the best way for
the pets.
There
are two news about abandoned the dog. First, it is according to the news of
Apple Daily News. People found that the dog of Alaskan malamute on the street.
Moreover, it has a belt truss up on the railing. That is mean the dog has a
host, but the host was missing. Then, people call the police to handle it. The
second news is according to Oriental Daily News. People found that four newborn
doggies in the ashcan. All babies are still closing the eyes. Then, the finder
takes all dog babies to the doctor. The doctor said that they still not enough
one week for newborn. Now, they are accepted treatment in the hospital.
Above
all, it can show that the problem of animals abandoned in Hong Kong is so
seriously. I want to have some change through my video. Although, it cannot
have a big change and save every pets. I want that it can let people do not abandon
their pets any more in at least.
