To me, the level of civilization of any culture is evident by how they treat animals. The culture that did this has zero place in any modern civilized society.
So true. Biggest sh#thole I have ever visited was Egypt. We walked to the beach from rhe cruiseship in Alexandria. Dead cats everywhere along the streets. Many looked like they had been there for years. My wife thought wearing capris would be modest enough but we observed a oman and a woman in a burka in conversation about her pants.
I sure don't want any of them around me, in my town, or in my society... Ever!
