- A county in southwestern China has killed as many as 50,000 dogs in a government campaign ordered after three people died from rabies, official media reported Tuesday. The five-day massacre in Yunnan province's Mouding county spared only military guard dogs and police canine units, the Shanghai Daily reported, citing local media. Dogs being walked were taken from their owners and beaten on the spot, the newspaper said. Other killing teams entered villages at night, creating noise to get dogs barking, then honing in and beating them to death. ![]() |

The way a wildfire and a virus spread is comparable. In both cases, removal of the fuel is the only effective way to halt a massive spread. In humans, this is done by vaccination. Because of the probable lack of vaccine, destruction of the animals was the only viable way to remove the fuel.
