Hundreds of dogs in China avoided ending up on the dinner table when a suspicious driver blocked a truck that was carrying the dogs to a slaughterhouse last Friday. The driver alerted activists on his blog, and around 200 people swarmed the truck for a 15-hour standoff. As many as 520 dogs were saved and taken to a shelter or an animal hospital.

Studies show that cows have a broad range of emotions and that pigs are as smart as dogs. So why call one animal “family” and another animal “food”?
