Days before the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Olympic officials have ordered that all stray dogs wandering near the Olympic event be killed. This action came after the dogs started causing problems throughout the village. A specific problem that caused a stir, were the dogs biting small children which caused a great deal of concern for the safety of the people attending the games. Sochi took this precaution ensuring that no spectators or athletes would be hurt. It also rules out the scenario that if there was a sudden attack, it would be a disgrace for the whole country. Throughout the years killing stray dogs has been a typical practice in Russia, but animal activists are looking for ways to resolve the conflict.
