A number of deputies to the National People s Congress, China s top legislature, have called for legislation mandating punishment for those who abuse animals, as many such cases have been reported across the country in recent years. Animal abuse is a kind of dangerous behavior that not only violates public order and disregards social ethics, but also infringes on the safety of people s lives and property. That should be fought and punished through legislation necessarily and promptly, said Zhu Lieyu, an NPC deputy from Guangdong province.
