Dogs which are purchased by animal right activists to rescue them from dog meat dealers, are kept in a temporary shelter ahead of a local dog meat festival in Yulin, Guangxi Autonomous Region, June 21, 2015. Local residents in Yulin host small gatherings to consume dog meat and lychees during the festival, which falls on Monday this year, in celebration of the summer solstice, which marks the coming of the hottest days.
