Dogs don't have it good in places like Yulin, China. It is home to the infamous and controversial Yulin Dog Meat Festival. There have since been tens of thousands of dogs slaughtered and eaten at the annual event.

Now, protestors are trying a different approach. The dancers from the China National Pole Dancing Team and POLE11 collaborated on this project in hopes of ending animal cruelty.


The dancers posed as dogs that were caged, beaten, torched and tied up.


Would this draw more attention to animal cruelty?


Can we see animal cruelty from a different point of view if it were humans instead?


Dancers recreated the image of captured and tortured dogs.


Does this strike a chord in you?
