Twelve arrested for allegedly running cat trafficking ring in Vietnam
According to the animal protection organisation Humane World for Animals, an estimated five million dogs and one million cats are captured, stolen, trafficked and slaughtered for meat in Vietnam every year.
On 8 July, police said they seized 50 cats, two weighing scales, 55 cat traps, 14 bags, 13 mobile phones, seven motorbikes, two fur-removing machines and 6.
While the consumption of dog and cat meat remains more common in Vietnam than other Asian countries, campaigners say attitudes are changing.
