Tesco Staff in China Kill Turtles to Order by Decapitation

Posted by Viola Woolcott

China’ hunger for turtle meat started off an acute extinction crisis. Tesco is facilitating the demise of these species by selling alive freshwater turtles in its Chinese stores.

Read this:
In a Tesco store in China’s Guangdong Province, CWI observed how staff caught a turtle and started to cut its head. “The turtle pulled back into the shell,” says Dr Maas, “so staff cut the shell along the edge. The turtle broke loose and was caught again after about a minute. Staff then sliced the still living turtle in half separating the upper and lower part of its shell. In another scene, Tesco staff cut the turtle’s abdomen from tail to neck with a pair of scissors. The turtle extended its long neck and its extremities struggled. Tesco staff then added a traverse incision and pulled out the entrails.

This is totally barbaric and disgusting. To read the whole article click here:
