More than 13,000 dogs are allegedly being slaughtered every month in the Indonesian city of Solo to meet local demand for the animal’s meat.
A recent investigation by the Dog Meat Free Indonesia Coalition of campaigners found about 200 street vendors and restaurants were selling dog meat for typically around $2 a serving.
Campaigners say the dog meat trade poses major public health risks, and Bali’s Governor as well other locals have cracked down on the trade.
