Target: Xia Xinmin, Director of the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Forestry
Goal: Initiate a thorough investigation into the treatment of ‘panda dogs’ at Taizhou Zoo.
Recently, Taizhou Zoo in Jiangsu Province has attracted international attention and criticism for its so-called ‘panda dogs.’ These small Chow Chow dogs were allegedly transformed to resemble pandas, cutting their fur and adding black and white dye to their face and body. The manipulation of these dogs under the guise of entertainment has raised substantial concerns among local and global communities.
The ‘panda dogs’ exhibit, unveiled last week, has been purported to draw large crowds, yet it has also sparked allegations of animal cruelty. While a local pet beautician claimed that natural dyes are generally safe for pets, the ethics of using animals for such purposes, especially in a zoo setting, has been questioned. This practice has left many wondering about the psychological and physical impact on the dogs, highlighted by the swift backlash from zoo visitors and animal advocates.
The need for a comprehensive legal review is apparent to ensure that no animal is subject to unnecessary harm for entertainment. Seek a thorough investigation by the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Forestry to determine the factual basis of these allegations and, if verified, to enforce the strictest penalties against those responsible.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Director Xia Xinmin,
We are writing to express our profound concerns over the recent ‘panda dogs’ exhibit at Taizhou Zoo. The Chow Chows reportedly had their fur unnaturally trimmed and dyed to mimic pandas, a move that has not only drawn public ire but also accusations of cruelty and exploitation. This alteration of the dogs’ natural appearance for commercial gain is disturbing and potentially harmful, reflecting a suspected disregard for animal welfare.
The reports of these dogs being displayed to large crowds, under potentially stressful conditions, necessitates your urgent attention and action. It is essential to ascertain whether these practices conform to the legal standards of animal treatment and welfare within our region. Should these allegations hold true, it is imperative that measures are taken to ensure no further harm comes to these animals and that such practices are not replicated in the future.
We, therefore, urge you to initiate a comprehensive investigation into the matter. We seek to understand the full extent of the situation and to ensure that the welfare of the ‘panda dogs’ is not compromised. Our collective voice calls for justice and adherence to the principles of humane treatment for all animals within our jurisdiction.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
