A man uses a blow torch in order to tenderize the meat of
a dead dog at a dog slaughterhouse in Inchon, west of
Seoul, January 29, 2002. Last month, a South Korean
nutritionist who boasts scores of dog recipes hit back,
saying that animal lovers should concentrate on fighting
to save species nearing extinction rather than attacking
his country's dogmeat-eating tradition.
