I found this to be a topic with some ugly background, but here’s good news … if it happens:
The legislation, drawn up in consultation with the RSPCA, will include provisions to both protect pets and cover how farm animals should be raised, transported and slaughtered. It will also deliver protection for captive wildlife and laboratory animals.
Past efforts to promote animal protection legislation in China have met with steady failure. Possibly, hopefully, this action will lead to a step forward. No great leap requested. We’ll see.
