front of a restaurant on a sparse alley.
A citizen who turns on a cell phone flash looks at something.
He found a cat bleeding with a wire wrapped around his body.
[Kim Mi-ji/'Sweet Animal World' Ulsan Branch Office Manager:'Come here my baby' I was attracted in this way, snatched, and pecked the wire.
It was a very cruel situation.] On
the 1st, a cat that had been thrown out and fell down was found, and a feed mixed with a substance that is supposed to be pesticide was also placed.
Cat mom in her 70s, who was removing food with her bare hands in a hurry, fell on the spot due to shortness of breath.
[Catmom collapsed at the time: (Cat) I picked up the bite while eating and smelled it, so I was just dizzy and suddenly fell down...
.] In
the last month, only 5 cat carcasses have been identified in Ulsan by animal protection groups, and the common point is a redevelopment area.
Cat moms who care for street cats suspect that it is a malicious act of abuse by a person who hates animals.
In the redevelopment area, cat moms set up feeders for street cats and give them food, because some months ago someone set up traps to catch cats.
[Kim Mi-ji/'Sweet Animal World' Ulsan Branch Secretary General: If a dog, a resident, or a child who was walking does not know well and touches it, there is a big danger that is obviously too fired.] The
police use tools and drugs. It is believed that the act of killing a cat by using it is a violation of the Animal Protection Act, and is investigating by securing CCTV images around it.
