It's worth reminding that in the Astrakhan region, the problem of attacks by stray dogs on people is very acute. In January, dogs killed a local resident on his way to work; in February, dogs attacked two girls in Astrakhan.
Last summer, the Investigative Committee for the region opened a criminal case on the fact of the negligence of officials of the Astrakhan administration after the attack of dogs on passers-by.
In January, deputies from the Astrakhan Regional Duma submitted a proposal to the government to amend the federal law "On Responsible Treatment of Animals" to allow the killing of aggressive stray dogs.
