Puppies in the River

A disturbing YouTube video showing a young woman throwing puppies into a river has sparked cries of outrage among Internet users with many vowing to hunt her down.

The video was originally uploaded to the video sharing sites YouTube and LiveLeak, but was quickly taken down by both sites. Since then the video has gone viral, and been posted to copious sites (including LiveLeak) in an attempt to catch the puppy-abuser.

The video shows a blonde-haired girl picking up puppies out of a bucket and tossing them into a river. At this time, it’s unclear if the video is authentic or a hoax.

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has also jumped into the fray–on Tuesday, it offered a $2,000 reward for information that will lead to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons involved in this incident of animal cruelty.

That said, the Internet has wasted no time in getting to work hunting the girl (and the camera man) down. Web users on popular Internet forums immediately jumped to identify the girl.

The owner of the YouTube account has been identified ~ video was first uploaded (the user’s name is Martin, and he appears to be from Bugojno, Bosnia), as well as a couple of Facebook accounts that may or may not belong to the girl. The board also thinks it has identified some of the girl’s friends, and has posted all this information to an image board.

Dog Poop Girl

Back in 2005, a South Korean woman took some manner of tiny dog on a subway, where it promptly took a dump on the floor of the car. South Koreans, being polite folks, asked if she wouldn’t mind cleaning the steamer up. She declined. One passenger even offered her a tissue. She used it to wipe the dog’s ass but left the shit on the floor. South Korean politeness just about ran its course at that point.

A passenger on the train snapped some photos of the woman with a camera phone. Some hours later her photo was on various popular websites across Korea with the label “dog shit girl” attached. Like clockwork, within a few days her name and personal info were posted everywhere as well, the results of Internet users with a lot of time and a lust for shit-free subways on their hands.
