Target: Gianni Infantino, President, FIFA, Zürich, Switzerland
Goal: Support an independent inquiry into allegations of mass stray dog killings connected to World Cup preparations.
International animal welfare groups have intensified concerns regarding allegations that stray dogs are being poisoned or shot during population-control efforts linked to preparations for the 2030 FIFA World Cup. Witness reports and circulating footage have fueled outrage among advocacy organizations demanding immediate international scrutiny.
Campaigners allege that thousands of dogs may have been killed through inhumane methods. While officials have denied the existence of a centralized campaign, activists argue that recent footage and testimony suggest ongoing culling operations in multiple urban areas.
If substantiated, these allegations would represent widespread cruelty toward vulnerable animals carried out under the justification of public image management. Independent investigation is necessary to determine the accuracy and extent of the reported conduct.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear President Infantino,
Animal welfare groups have raised allegations that stray dogs are being poisoned or shot during population-control efforts connected to preparations for the 2030 World Cup. Recent footage and witness reports have intensified concern internationally.
Although authorities have denied a coordinated campaign, the seriousness of the allegations warrants independent scrutiny. If proven, such conduct would represent severe cruelty toward defenseless animals.
We urge FIFA to support an independent inquiry and encourage humane alternatives including sterilization and vaccination programs instead of alleged mass killings.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
