Thanx.. I will execute it tonite...

yes i know its cruel but i think its the best way mate,,,,alot of wild dogs here get shot coz they kill peoples animals,like goats,baby cows ,chickens etc...authorities wont take responsibility coz in such countries in Asia there is no control over neutering them hence the growing number of animals roaming the streets and living of other smaller animals.

I've could have sworn we already had this topic...must be me,

Yes but Rat poison, seriously ? Jesus christ !
It's their nature to be hunters just like cats, you're gonna kill them because of their nature ? Or kill them because they don't have anyone who cares about them ? Or kill them because they are hungry ? OR because we humans screwed up ?

Do you have any idea what rat poison actually does to the human body and how much pain it brings and how long it takes to die from it ?

Sorry but i don't agree with poisoning or shooting or killing of dogs or any animals. No matter for what reason.
Instead why not be different and start your own animal shelter with just 1 helper(yourself) and go from there. Start collecting donations from people and expand your shelter to house more dogs and get more helpers.
I mean why not try to change things for the better without violence or death. Make this world a better place then it is now. Set an example and inspire others to do the same and
Like i said before: "What ever happened to compassion ?"
You can't kill dogs because of their nature to hunt just like you cannot kill homeless people because they are useless to society. Imagine poisoning or killing homeless people, everyone would think you're a monster for doing so.
Then why would it be OK for dogs ? Did anyone ever consider that they attack other animals because they are just hungry ?
If i where living in an area with stray dogs i would never kill or harm them, i would try to find a another way. And wouldn't really care what other people think cause that's my nature, to find another way. Even if it's difficult or hard.
If others kill animals why should you do the same as they ? There is always another solution to any problem.

Just saying that it's not the right thing to do because this world is already as shitty as it can get so why not try and bring some hope and compassion and make this a world a place of pure light as it should be.

You mean to say the dogs killed the kittens coz they were hungry ? I am sheltering Cats(Kittens).. They get killed inside My house coz the gate is open for fraction of seconds & the helpless kittens who were playing in the garden get killed by these rabid dogs.. I earlier called the Authorities here & told them to drop these dogs somewhere else but they just Vaccinated them & dropped them again at "Our" place.... 4 Kittens have been killed in last 2 months in fraction of seconds.. It's not like I don't keep a tab.. I always keep tab but still the kittens got killed.. My Society Secretary says He cannot do anything regarding this.. I complained to him that My friend got bitten by these dogs.. They did nothing.. A small boy was chased by these 7-8 dogs & luckily He survived.. Still Society says We cannot do anything.. I have no other option except to kill them...

Then make sure that gate is closed at all times and cannot be opened by force.
And when someone opens it then make sure there are no stray dogs around.
The authorities and you could call an animal shelter and ask them for help. Many animal shelters are overcrowded i know but it's still worth a shot. And ask them about what else you should do.
Neutering those dogs is the best option because it solves the problem for the long run, killing those dogs will never solve anything. If you kill one dog then 2 more will take it's place because they will multiply faster then you can kill them.
In other countries this strategy of neutering worked.

Please DO NOT USE RAT POISON ! It takes a long time to die and is very painfull. If you're still not confinced then try giving some rat poison to a friend and see what happens, he will start bleeding from his eyes, ears, nostrils and mouth in agony. The poison destroys inside organs, similar like what the ebola virus does, only difference is that the ebola virus actually liquefies inner organs while rat poison just punches many little tiny holes thru them.

Call and ask your local vet and animal shelter(forget authorities) and ask for the best way on how to deal with this, i'm sure they have a solution that is better then rat poison.

Boss I have no other option except to kill the dog which killed the kitten..Remaining dogs can be sent to the authorities..I may have to bribe the authorities to throw the dogs somewhere else.. In India We do not have these Animal Shelters as u mentioned... There is one animal shelter but they refuse to take any dogs especially these rabid street dogs...

Humane Society International/India gives you the lowdown on legislation in relation to animal welfare in India so you can be informed of what protections are available to animals. READ IT. Here is a few:

It is the fundamental duty of every citizen of India to have compassion for all living creatures. Article 51A(g).

To kill or maim any animal, including stray animals, is a punishable offence. IPC Sections 428 and 429.

Capturing, trapping, poisoning or baiting of any wild animal or even attempting to do so is punishable by law, with a fine of up to Rs. 25000 or imprisonment of up to seven years or both. Section 9, Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972.

This subject is not allowed on the Clixsense forum. Posting any material that is in violation of any International or United States Federal law will not be tolerated.

A shotgun shot in the air, is enough to keep them away, period!

When you see them again, shoot in the air above their heads. They won't come back.
