-In two islands off Malaysia's western Selangor state.
-More than 300 stray dogs in Malaysia that were dumped on uninhabited islands and turned to cannibalism after weeks of starvation
-The case has caused outrage after activists released images showing dogs eating the carcasses of other dogs.
-The villagers said they believed the dogs would be able to survive by living off the deserted islands' wildlife. They claim the strays had led to problems with dogs fouling the streets and sometimes biting children.
-A team from the Selangor Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has gone to one of the islands to try to rescue the dogs for rehabilitation. However efforts have been hampered by the thick mangroves
-Some dogs tried to swim back to their island, about a half-hour boat ride away, but it was not clear how many succeeded.
-They estimate that 200 dogs may have survived. Once the animals are healthy enough, they will be neutered and re-homed or relocated.
So how do you handle stray dogs when your government obviously can't protect you from them biting your children or defecating on streets? What should've been the appropriate course of action? Do you think any of these dogs will survive or become normal, after being forced to cannibalism from starvation? Or simply, how much blame should be placed on the citizens of Pulau Ketam?
have the animals you do have neutered. even in the US there are similar problems to this one but people just dont know. unless you are actually breeding, cut the thingies!
well i dont think these dogs will be able to go back to a normal household life because if they had to turn into cannabilism because they were starving and thats what they got useed to...so i think they will still try eating other animals or bitting children
