No, there is no justification for Yulin. Yulin has to be one of the worst atrocities ever committed by humans.
Now unfortunately eating dog meat is not illegal in China. So it seems the authorities are having a hard time shutting down Yulin, while these things are happening elsewhere in the country and are not illegal, but in their view "just the restaurant trade".
The real issue is that of animal welfare which is sadly lacking obviously.
I have not been able to get Yulin out of my mind for many days. But even when it's over....elsewhere in China and in other countries it is happening regularly, though not as obviously.
I hope and pray one day these things will never happen again or be allowed to. In the meantime we all have to fight it any way we can.
The way the rescuers are finding ways to be able to stop the transport trucks legally....is a great step forward at least.
