In April of 2010 Serbia was rocked by the news that a dog whose paws had been   cut off was found in the Medakovic neighborhood of Belgrade. Miraculously,   the dog was still alive, but in bad condition. The news media named the dog   Mila (which, aside from being a Serbian female name, can also mean “dear one”   or “gentle one”) and the Serbian public followed the story of Mila’s plight   and subsequent recovery with great interest and much comment, so much so that   the event became a trigger for a moral panic of sorts. In this paper I have   attempted to point out how the Serbian public, with reference to the case of   Mila the dog, conceptualizes violence against animals, as well as to point   out that folk classifications of living creatures - such as the one which   distinguishes animals from meat (see Mullin 1999) - influence the   understanding and conceptualization of violence as a phenomenon. Secondly, I   have attempted to uncover which elements of the event in question caused a   moral panic in Serbia, and which had inhibited the development of a serious   public discussion of the issue of animal suffering. In that sense, the object   of this paper is twofold - on the one hand it aims to point out why a   discussion of the systematic and systemic violence against animals did not   occur, and on the other, it serves to point out those elements of the event   which caused the panic
