Turkey approves law to remove stray dogs from streets – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
SUMMARY: Turkish legislators passed a controversial law to address the country's stray dog issue, which animal lovers fear will lead to mass euthanasia or overcrowded shelters, and could target political opposition. The bill mandates municipalities to collect, vaccinate, neuter, spay, and shelter stray dogs, euthanizing only those that are ill or dangerous. Protests erupted nationwide, including defiant messages in Istanbul and Ankara. Critics argue the law could dissuade tourism and suggest better implementation of previous regulations. The government denies the bill permits widespread culling. Turkey's main opposition party plans to challenge the law, citing moral and legal concerns.
