Russian officials plan to kill thousands of stray dogs before the 2018 FIFA World Cup. In preparation for the most watched sporting event in the world, the Russian government has contracted a "canine death squad" to shoot and poison, up to 2 million, street dogs and cats in eleven host cities.
As a Russian citizen and as Director of the City Animal Protection Foundation, I have started this petition calling on President Putin, to stop the slaughter of stray animals before the 2018 World Cup. If you agree with me, please sign and share it today.
Like the mass killing of street dogs before the Sochi Olympics, my country will once again solve its pet overpopulation with violence instead of humane methods. The lethal eradication plan was exposed to the us via leaked state contracts allocating funds to kill animals across the country. Some £1.4million has been assigned to host cities to pay for deployment of 'canine KGB' death squads.
I believe if people from countries participating the the World Cup speak out, we can stop this slaughter.
If people don’t act, countless dogs and other animals will be hunted down before the World Cup. Please join me in urging President Putin to invest in humane solutions instead of mass slaughter.
Thank you,
