Turkey's parliament has passed a contentious bill to regulate its estimated four million stray dogs, mandating their removal from streets and their placement in shelters. The legislation, supported by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's ruling party, allows for the euthanasia of dogs that are aggressive, terminally ill, or pose health risks. Nationwide protests have erupted, with critics dubbing it the 'massacre law' and expressing fears of widespread culling due to inadequate shelter infrastructure. Animal rights activists advocate for mass sterilization and vaccination as more humane solutions. Opposition parties plan to challenge the law in the constitutional court, arguing it violates animals' right to life.
