The problem of stray dogs ((ブルガリア語:помияри), ''pomiyari''〔(Bulgarian dictionary )〕) in Sofia, the capital city of Bulgaria, was acknowledged in 2012 by the government as the most important problem of the city. == Background == thumbnail thumbnail thumbnail thumbnail thumbnail Stray dogs are the top and number one problem of Bulgaria's capital Sofia, according to mayor Yordanka Fandakova.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.novinite.com/articles/138419/Mayor%3A+Stray+Dogs+Are+Sofia's+Top+Problem )〕 Stray dogs have become part of urban life in Bulgaria but after a pack mauled a US university professor and Wall Street broker to death in 2012, the problem spotted into light, prompting the government to suggest a large-scale euthanasia program for aggressive animals and construction of emergency shelters to remove other strays from the street. Rights groups struck back, accusing authorities of weak control over pet owners who do not register their animals and often abandon them or their litters on the streets and state that there are corrupt practices when it comes to castrating dogs. The mayor Fandakova gained a global precedent, she is an unattainable mayor by number of citizens killed by dogs with 2 registered death cases only for 2012. Because of the incidents, a political opponent of the mayor, Georgi Kadiev, tried to sue Fandakova, but the local court rejected his wish. Bulgaria is still relatively tolerant for the dogs, unlike neighbouring Romania, where a law for the extermination of street dogs was signed by president Basescu and many politicians have been sued such as Basescu himself.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.monitor.bg/article?id=401611 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Street dogs in Sofia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
