01 AUGUST 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: People in animal suits march into the Thai parliament building Thursday. Members of the SPCAT picketed the Thai parliament building in Bangkok Thursday to call attention to proposed anti-animal cruelty laws being debated by the Parliament. The laws would tighten animal cruelty law regarding the dog (and cat) meat trade, buying and selling exotic pets, ivory and endangered animal products (like bear bile and ivory). Thailand serves as a transit point for the endangered animal and exotic meat trade. Ivory is shipped to China. Dogs (for meat) are sold to Vietnam. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
