Amazing that after I would guess approximately 8-10 years of education they learnt nothing. What is worse than that , is they have obviously received Zero Guidance form their parents either. Am,azing Thailand !!!! Eight to ten years of "No-Fail" education is Education? The resulting actions speak for itself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micbozy Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 "The welfare authorities went to the area and rounded up many suspect animals. They cut the heads off the animals and buried the corpses. The cut off heads were sent for analysis to Khon Kaen." Cut off their heads first, then analyze whether they were infected or not later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustdevil Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Just now, ratcatcher said: Agreed, but their hamburgers aren't. I'm down with that. In the States if people feel like a burger many just go where the best in-house ones are made--or maybe Shake Shack (which I haven't tried yet; there's even one or two in Dubai now).

anon4637435435 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 is there no common sense here? Hmm, maybe im lacking common sense to be still asking. Its the 21st centuary.

Eating them raw or preparing the meat can be more dangerous though. I'm no expert however so I'm probably wrong I think I will stick to my Pressed Pork and Cockroaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgdawg Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 1 hour ago, Krataiboy said: Meanwhile, absolutely nothing is done to round up and destroy countless thousands of potentially rabid soi dogs roaming the country. According to the results of a recent survey of dogs in Bangkok, around half may be infected and an estimated 15-20 percent of animals in the provinces could be carrying the deadly disease. In the coastal resort where I live, there has been a marked increase in the soi dog population in recent years. One reason is the failure of the local authorities to ensure rubbish bins are neither dog-proof nor emptied when full. Another is the fact that well-meaning individuals feed packs of strays, ensuring they stay relatively healthy and can breed unchecked - which is what happens. In our soi alone several people have suffered dog bites in the last month and we are told the local hospital deals with 20 cases PER DAY Krataiboy... you are preaching to the choir. December 2015 and I am pedaling at night and I get jumped by a pack of soi dogs riding east of Pattaya. Huay Yai area. I pedaled like hell to get away---instinctive reaction. No time to even swing my pepper spray in their direction. Nasty bite. I actually found the Thai owner of the dog (1am mind you...) showed him my wound. Just above my left ankle. I had compression hose on that hid the real damage. Smart move to at least break the ice with the guy. I asked why keep such nasty dogs? He replied "...thieves in the area, stealing his cows." We shook hands, exchanged phone numbers. NO raised voices. A discussion, very cordial. I was shocked. Amazing Thailand. I thought my wound minor----went to the clinic in Pattaya. Not so minor wound. Started on tetnaus and rabies series (VeroRab). About 5 injections. Not so painful, about $100. The Tai farmer paid the tab! I MIGHT have skated by not getting any shots---but what if the dog that bit me feasted on a rotted corpse of any animal? That was my dilemma. The dog looked healthy, but I did not wish to take a chance. He knows me when I pedal by---I ring my bell. Yes----I agree with this thread---there really are too many free-ranging dogs off leashes. What leashes? I know there is the VN and Laos BBQ option---but that is a very hot button topic. I take care of a soi dog on my street. There are legit owners who pay the Vet bills and shots and vaccinations are up to date. In Mexico, free ranging dogs are rounded up from the pueblas and villages and taken way off shore and drowned en masse---about June---after tourist season. Drown, BBQ or really---spade and Vet services. None of this is easy nor cheap. Many cross cultural issues about "Fido."

So many on here who would rather poke and make fun, rather then to see if there was an underlining reason to why they would eat what they did. I just hope for a lot of the posters here, that if their family ever got so desperate for food and had to resort to something akin to what happened here, that they dont mind if ppl make jokes at their expense.

I guess it will stay this way until all the farmers have lost their farms to the banks and the Hi-Sos, then there will be big subsidies for crops.
