Lychee and Dog Meat Festival
The Lychee and Dog Meat Festival, commonly referred to as Yulin Dog Meat Festival, is an annual celebration held in Yulin, Guangxi, China, during the summer solstice in which festival goers eat dog meat and lychees. The festival spans about ten days during which it is estimated that 10,000–15,000 dogs are consumed. The festival has been criticised by animal welfare supporters.
==Background==
The festival is celebrated annually in Yulin, Guangxi, China, during the summer solstice in June, by eating dog meat and lychees. This activity is believed to counteract the heat of summer. About 10,000 to 15,000 dogs are consumed during the ten days of the festival.〔
In a 2014 statement released to Xinhua, Yulin's local government denies any official involvement or endorsement of the festival itself, describes the event as a local custom observed by "a small percentage of Yulin's residents", and attributes the branding of the event to local businesses and residents.
