Dog meat is the flesh and other edible parts derived from dogs. Historically human consumption of dog meat has been recorded in many parts of the world.[4]
In the 21st century dog meat is consumed to a limited extent in Korea, China,[5] Indonesia, Nigeria,[6] Switzerland,[7] Vietnam,[8] and India;[9] it is eaten or is legal to be eaten in other countries throughout the world. Some cultures view the consumption of dog meat as part of their traditional, ritualistic, or day-to-day cuisine, and other cultures consider consumption of dog meat a taboo, even where it had been consumed in the past. Opinions also vary drastically across different regions within different countries.[10][11] It was estimated in 2014 that worldwide, 27 million dogs are eaten each year by humans.[12]
