Turkish animal rights activists hold placards and shout slogans during a demonstration to protect stray dogs and cats in Izmir, Turkey on August 9, 2024. Recently, animal rights activists in the country have held rallies protesting the proposed bill in the Turkish parliament aimed at managing the stray dog population. The draft law, consisting of 17 articles, includes a controversial clause regarding the euthanasia of stray animals that sparked anger among animal rights groups and led to demonstrations in major cities like Istanbul, Ankara, and Izmir. The government estimates that around 4 million stray dogs live in Turkey. Photo by Murat Kocabas/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
