Gangwon Province became a Sister State with Colorado in 1991.
Gangwon Province is one of the largest dog meat suppliers and consumption provinces in South Korea. There are hundreds of dog farms, dog slaughterhouses, dog meat restaurants, and so-called “Health Centers” where they serve soup made of dog meat as an elixir. Dogs suffer their entire lives in filthy, feces encrusted raised wire cages in utter misery only to be slaughtered in the most horrific of ways. They are killed by electrocution, hammer strikes to their head and necks, being hung, being beaten to death, having their throats slit, being burned alive with a blowtorch, or thrown into a vat of boiling water while still alive.
In many places in Gangwon Province, dogs are killed in full view of other terrified, caged dogs who tremble with terror. In addition, people’s beloved pets are often stolen and sold to these businesses, where they meet the same horrific fate. Dogs and puppies who died of diseases are tossed away like garbage, often left in front of cages to rot while the mother dogs watch and cry out in despair for their dead babies.
We cannot stand by while the Gangwon Province continues to deceive us and inflict unimaginable cruelty on animals who consider humans guardians and companions. So we are now asking Colorado Governor Polis and his administration to urge Gangwon Province to stop the dog and cat meat industry in their province – an illegal, brutal, and diabolical industry.
