Thousands of dead pigs dumped in Chinese river

Porcine pollution: Thousands of dead pigs dumped in Chinese river (PHOTOS)

Published time: March 11, 2013 12:56

Nearly 3,000 dead pigs have been fished out of the Huangpu River in China – a source of drinking water for millions of Shanghai residents. The number is likely to increase as the operation progresses.

It is remains unknown who dumped the carcasses into the Huangpu River or what the cause of their death may have been. One possibility is that the pigs were discarded into the waters by some farmer from the neighboring province of Zhejiang.

Locals have complained of the terrible smell from the river and are highly concerned with the quality of drinking water, but officials said no health risks have been registered. According to authorities, tests of the Huangpu's waters found no traces of foot-and-mouth disease, blue-ear pig disease or swine fever.

UPDATE!!!!!

Dead pigs in Shanghai river: more than 6,000 carcasses found

Huangpu river water tested as tally of pigs, thought dumped by swine farms upstream in Zhejiang, more than doubles

  • guardian.co.ukWednesday 13 March 2013 15.25 GMT

Hundreds more dead pigs have been recovered from the Huangpu riverin Shanghai following the discovery of more than 2,800 floating carcasses earlier this week.

The find brings the total to more than 6,600 carcasses since last Friday.

The swollen, rotting bodies in the Huangpu are causing anxiety for local residents, but officials said the water supply remained safe.

A surge in the dumping of dead pigs followed police campaigns against the sale of pork products made from diseased pigs.

The carcasses in the Huangpu are believed to come from pig farms upstream in the Jiaxing area of neighbouring Zhejiang province.

On Wednesday, a Zhejiang court sentenced 46 people to jail for producing unsafe pork from sick pigs that they had acquired and slaughtered between 2010 and 2012.

BTW we have some of the if not the stictest food regulations in the world.

Comment by Ragnarok on March 14, 2013 at 4:05pm

You would be amazed what some curing, smoking or marinating can do :-). A thumb rule where im from is that if its marinated its old meat turned into another product. Another way is to take roasts and turn em into minced meat. You wont hear the industry tell about it. But its been like that since like day 1 of the big food industry or just hustling farmers. 

Dont forget neither as a spec-op soldier or something like that, you learn how to eat rotten foods :-). The human stomach is a hard to crack.

If we haven't figured out that all the water in industrial nations is tainted and if there aren't dead pigs in the water there is the enormous amounts of unknown drugs .. Fluoride on purpose
