Dog-eating festival goes ahead despite heavy protests

Animal activists swooped in and bought as many dogs as possible before they were eaten at a controversial festival in China.

The festival, which has been around for centuries, takes place in the city of Yulin around the summer solstice every year.

Live dogs are caged and bought by those partaking.

The animals are later slaughtered and eaten.
