PETA Asia published new footage of markets in Tomohon, Indonesia and Bangkok, Thailand which lined up dogs, rats, and snakes right next to each other. The sellers were still working without gloves. In response, the United Nations has sanctioned a worldwide ban on wildlife markets. However, they have also pointed out that these markets are the source of income for millions, especially in poverty, so alternative solutions must be discussed for them.
In the meantime, PETA still demands an end to the trading of animals as livestock worldwide and still stand by their statement: becoming vegan is the only solution to preventing most epidemics and other diseases.
