Neverovatan gest američkog skijaša Gasa Kenvortija obeležio je Zimske olimpijske igre u Pjongčangu.

Amerikanac je spasao čak 90 kučića sa jedne farme u Južnoj Koreji. Uspeo je da ubedi vlasnika farme da mu dopusti da pse pošalje u Ameriku u Kanadu.

A good girl and a bad bitch. Who's who? ????

"Nije moja dužnost da namećem neke zapadnjačke ideale ljudima koji žive ovde. Način na koji se ponašaju prema životinjama je nehuman i kultura ne bi trebala da bude razlog za okrutnost", izjavio je Kenvorti.

Gas je jedno štene sa farme zadržao za sebe i dao mu ime Bimo.

This morning Matt and I had a heart-wrenching visit to one of the 17,000 dog farms here in South Korea. Across the country there are 2.5 million dogs being raised for food in some of the most disturbing conditions imaginable. Yes, there is an argument to be made that eating dogs is a part of Korean culture. And, while don't personally agree with it, I do agree that it's not my place to impose western ideals on the people here. The way these animals are being treated, however, is completely inhumane and culture should never be a scapegoat for cruelty. I was told that the dogs on this particular farm were kept in "good conditions" by comparison to other farms. The dogs here are malnourished and physically abused, crammed into tiny wire-floored pens, and exposed to the freezing winter elements and scorching summer conditions. When it comes time to put one down it is done so in front of the other dogs by means of electrocution sometimes taking up to 20 agonizing minutes. Despite the beliefs of some, these dogs are no different from the ones we call pets back home. Some of them were even pets at one time and were stolen or found and sold into the dog meat trade. Luckily, this particular farm (thanks to the hard work of the Humane Society International and the cooperation of a farmer who's seen the error of his ways) is being permanently shut down and all 90 of the dogs here will be brought to the US and Canada where they'll find their fur-ever homes. I adopted the sweet baby in the first pic (we named her Beemo) and she'll be coming to the US to live with me as soon as she's through with her vaccinations in a short couple of weeks. I cannot wait to give her the best life possible! There are still millions of dogs here in need of help though (like the Great Pyrenees in the 2nd pic who was truly the sweetest dog ever). I'm hoping to use this visit as an opportunity to raise awareness to the inhumanity of the dog meat trade and the plight of dogs everywhere, including back home in the US where millions of dogs are in need of loving homes!

Podsetimo, Američki skijaš je dospeo u žižu interesovanja kada je na Zimskim olimpijskim igrama u Sočiju 2014. godine, kada je spasao pet kuca lutalica koje su hteli da uspavaju.

Post press conference photo op with the whole U.S. men's and women's ski slope team, today! SO stoked to be a part of this crew and to have the opportunity to show the world what we've got! There's less than one week 'til go time (women on the 17th, men on the 18th) so don't miss it! #Olympics #TeamUSA #TeamUSSlay ⛷️??

Verovali ili ne, više od dva miliona pasa godišnje se pojede u Južnoj Koreji. Čorba od psećeg mesa služi se i dalje u 12 restorana u Pjongčangu, a samo su dva restorana pozitivno odgovorila na molbu vlasti da prestanu da služe pseće meso tokom trajanja Zimskih olimpijskih igara.
