A city in China has drafted a law to ban residents from eating dog meat to improve food safety in the wake of the novel coronavirus outbreak.

Animal activists have demanded the Chinese government prohibit the consumption of dogs for years. 

If this proposal from Shenzhen gets passed, it will be the first of its kind in the country.
