PETA opposes UK's plan to send dogs to war zones*

NEW DELHI: An animal welfare organisation in India raised concern over

Britain's plans to deploy dogs in battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan.

 

In a letter written to the British High Commissioner to India, the People

for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) opposed the British defence

ministry proposal of deploying dogs in situations that are too dangerous for

soldiers.

 

The Special Air Service (SAS) team in Britain has revealed plans of

parachuting in German Shepherds to spy on rebels to cut down casualty rates

in Iraq and Afghanistan.
