They do not believe in neutering but they believe in killing!
Açıklama
President of Animal Rights Federation in Turkey ( Haytap ) Ahmet Kemal Senpolat explains in tv programs the new animal protection law.
This new law in Turkey is madness, totally impractical and useless. It will simply result in municipal dog catchers picking up friendly, approachable dogs and then later starving or killing them. It obviously will do nothing to solve the surplus dog problem, in fact it will make it worse, because by removing neutered, vaccinated dogs with ear clips from the streets, they will create carrying capacity for fertile dogs to breed on and on.
Turkey introduced Neuter & Return in about 2005 and it has definitely helped. Everywhere you see neutered dogs with ear clips. But the big mistake Erdogan made was to entrust implementation to municipalities, rather than involving NGOs.
Municipal workers do not have the motivation or the education to do door-to-door canvassing to collect and neuter female dogs with keepers/feeders/owners. Dogs with feeders are the most reproductively successful dogs, so are the source of the problem. Feral dogs are not the main source of the problem.
Here is the solution that Mr Senpolat offers just before the law passsed :
