Shocking photos circulating on the internet appear to show a new, disturbing trend in the disease stricken city of Wuhan, the epicentre of the corona virus outbreak. Many pet owners now appear to be killing their pets as a measure to prevent infection from the virus, which is thought to be carried by cats and dogs in addition to other smaller mammals like bats.
Even worse -- as many residents in the 12-million-people city live in high rise apartment blocks -- they are simply throwing their pets out of windows and off balconies to land on the streets below where many pets are killed and injured.
The above photo shows where several pets have landed and are either dead or are dying, like this poor dog, which was until recently somome's loved and overfed pet:
Meanwhile other dog owners, out walking their pets, faced with this spectacle, are being forced to think about the potential danger their pets pose to the family and consider whether they too will have to take such drastic action.
