衣類回収箱から鳴き声が…捨てられた子犬だった=韓国
Crying noises coming from a clothes collection box...it was an abandoned puppy (Korea)
A case was reported in which a puppy that had been abandoned in a bag was rescued from a clothing collection box. The source, Mr. A, reported through JTBC's "Case Head" on the 15th that at around 3 a.m. on the same day,
A person said they rescued three one-week-old puppies from a clothes collection box on a street in Gangbuk-gu. "I heard a dog barking while I was walking it," said A. "The puppies' cries...
"I thought it was a puppy, so I looked around and heard a sound coming from the clothes collection box," he said. When A looked inside the box at the time, he found a black bag moving around. A instinctively thought it was a puppy's cry.
Although they tried to contact the animal protection center, it was too early in the morning to get through. In the end, Ms. A rescued the puppy herself. She slowly turned the clothing collection box to its side and took the bag out of the clothes.
When he took out the bag and opened it, he found three puppies inside. One of the puppies, whose eyes had not yet opened, was already dead and motionless.
After that, A requested the police to investigate the animal cruelty. A said, "Fortunately, the clothes were returned.
"There was CCTV footage of the box being put in. We plan to check the CCTV footage with the police right away," he said. A took the two surviving puppies home and wrapped them in cloth to keep them warm.
The cub is being temporarily taken in by the zoo, who is giving it milk with a syringe. It is planned to be taken to an animal protection center, but if no one is found to take it within two weeks, it will be euthanized.
"If I leave it at a shelter, it won't be able to stay long. I'm worried it might be euthanized," said A.
On the other hand, South Korea's Animal Protection Act prohibits the infliction of unnecessary physical pain or stress on animals without a legitimate reason.
The Act defines animal abuse as the act of killing an animal, neglecting it without taking appropriate measures to prevent it from starving or becoming ill, or abandoning it. In addition, under Article 46 of the Animal Protection Act, any act that causes the death of an animal is punishable by imprisonment of up to three years.
Those who commit acts of animal cruelty, such as injuring animals or inducing illness, will be punished with imprisonment of up to two years or a fine of up to 20 million won (approximately 20,000,000 yen).
A fine of up to 10 million yen will be imposed.
