With traditional festivals such as the Yulin festival in China, there is always the question of whether or not their practices are humane. Some believe with the Yulin festival in particular, that the way they treat the dogs that are slaughtered for the festival is very inhumane and it needs to stop. Or, some say that since it is drenched in tradition, it shouldn’t be put to an end but more humane tactics and methods should be used in order to continue the tradition.
