While eating dog meat has become linked to China, in large part because of the country's annual Yulin dog meat festival, some 69.5 percent of people in China have never tried dog meat, says Humane Society International (HSI).

Sharks fin, on the other hand, is considered a delicacy, although its popularity has sharply declined in recent years. China has also taken similar measures to curb sharks fin consumption, with Air China Cargo becoming the first mainland carrier to ban the transport of sharks fin.
