Circumstances have been revealed in which companies that have been paid millions of won for taking care of the animals for disposal have handed over the entrusted dogs and cats to the contractors and killed them. The animal protection group ‘Life’ plans to hold a press conference on the 30th to accuse these companies of the actual situation and to demand prevention of recurrence through system improvement. On the 28th (SBS), ‘TV Animal Farm’ and ‘Life’, an animal protection group, unveiled the scene where 60 dog and cat carcasses were buried at a farm in Yeoju, Gyeonggi-do in April. At the scene, the bodies of one cat and 59 dogs were found, but the bodies of the animals were so dry that their bones were exposed. Eight of them were also found with animal registration recognition chips and leashes with phone numbers and names on them. According to the broadcast, the animals found dead were dogs brought by the owner of the land, Mr. A, from several private animal shelters and sales offices. Mr. A explained on the air, “I brought in dogs from an animal shelter run by an acquaintance for 110,000 to 200,000 won each and took care of them, but seven to eight died a week and were buried.”

However, as a result of the autopsy conducted by the Agriculture, Forestry and Livestock Quarantine Headquarters, the cause of death of many objects was found to be suffocation, except for some corpses whose cause of death was unknown because they had already become white bones. The veterinary researcher who conducted the autopsy said, “It is highly likely that he was buried while breathing. There were also 12 individuals with skull damage, all of which were large. It is impossible not to know that he was alive at the time of the burial, but it is a very inhumane act.” Only when the explanation was revealed to be false, Mr. A confessed that he had brought over 100 dogs and cats from the company and treated them. He said, “If there is no contact from the dog owner for more than 5 to 7 days at Payang Shelter, it will be sent to me. One month is the maximum period of protection. (At Payang Shelter) He told me to kill him.” In other words, the displaced shelter, which takes care of displaced animals, processed the dog through Mr. A. The company that entrusted the dogs to him advertises on their website as a ‘euthanasia-free shelter with free adoption and free admission’, but the companies limit the period for adopters to receive news of dogs’ protection in their contracts to up to 30 days, and then adopt them. If this does not happen, it seems to have been sent to Mr. A. All dog owners contacted with this recognition chip information were unaware of the dog’s death. In common, they said that they couldn’t afford to raise a dog anymore, so they left the dog to companies that even adopted dogs without euthanasia. It was found that he paid 3 to 6 million won for foster care while taking care of the dog. The broadcast also disclosed the situation that the sales office B, which sent the dogs to Mr. A, was continuing its business even after the police investigation began.

Sim In-seop, CEO of the animal protection group Life, said, “The expedient operation of a new type of pet shop that exploits the guilt of people who inevitably cannot raise dogs is serious. They advertise that they are shelters that protect dogs until the end, but they are no different from regular pet shops.” He said, “The disposition industry is causing a lot of problems, but the reason why it is successful is because it is a structure where anyone can buy and sell animals. If the fundamental problem is not addressed, second and third companies will emerge.” The group recovered a total of 118 animal carcasses over a total of three times in this incident, and rescued 65 abandoned animals that were handed over to animal handlers (land owners) in the process of tracking the incident. They will hold a press conference in front of the Presidential Office in Yongsan, Seoul at 10:30 am on the 30th, and will reveal in detail about the companies’ fraudulent practices and violations of the Animal Protection Act.
