Ethiopia is about to have their third milleninnium celebration on Sept. 12 with a huge concert expected to draw hundreds of thousands of partygoers.
Since attention will be focused on the country, it is doing many things to spruce up its image - including banning begging (there are over 90,000 beggars) and poisoning any stray dogs (Ethiopia is another country that has a stray dog problem).
PETA has volunteered to assist in “humane euthanasia” instead of the planned lacing of meat with strychnine - a powerful poison that causes pain and convulsions before death by asphyxiation.
