India Considering Shipping Stray Dogs to Korea for Soup

India: The New Delhi City Council is considering several solutions to the continuing problem of large number of stray dogs roaming the streets. One solution would have the dogs drugged so they would not create a traffic hazard.

Under another proposal dogs would be shipped to Korea to be used in soup. Dog meat is a popular soup ingredient in that country and Bosintang, a traditional South Korean soup, has it as a primary ingredient.

The soup is supposed to be made from purpose-bred dogs but examples of this tradition not being followed have been found by animal rights groups and journalists. Eating Bosintang is traditionally thought to enhance one's virility.
