Chukotka allowed euthanasia for dangerous and infectious stray dogs. Animals will be killed in temporary holding centers or shelters “using humane methods that guarantee a quick and painless death.” Earlier, the parliament of the Astrakhan region approved a law allowing the euthanization of aggressive stray dogs after a six-month stay in a shelter.
In October, the press service and information department of the administration of the governor of theAstrakhan area told RT that federal authorities had not shown interest or support for the idea.
