animal rights

About 200 animal lovers, including far-right leader and MEP Corneliu Vadim Tudor and actress Monica Davidescu, are protesting in Romania’s capital Bucharest over authorities’ plans to euthanize the capital’s thousands of stray dogs.

Romanian animal rights organization Vier Pfoten said Wednesday it would be cheaper and more effective in the long run to spay and neuter stray dogs in Romania’s capital Bucharest rather than euthanize them, as a draft law sent to Parliament by the capital’s prefect would have it.
