It is about Orelha the well loved street dog abused and murdered. Apparently thousands of people turned out in most of brasil's main cities to protest that the perpetrators are seemingly avoiding justice.

A morte do cão Orelha mobilizou atos pelo Brasil neste domingo (1º). Manifestantes foram às ruas pedir justiça pelo Brasil. Os atos ocorreram em pelo menos quatro capitais, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte e Brasília. Ao menos cinco ataques a cães, em Estados diferentes (Santa Catarina, São Paulo, Paraná e Rio Grande do Sul), geraram indignação nos últimos dias. #CNNBrasil

I need updates as to what is happening please!

You could try Google translate - it's free.

The death of the dog Orelha mobilized protests across Brazil this Sunday (1st). Demonstrators took to the streets to demand justice for Brazil. The protests took place in at least four capitals: São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte and Brasília. At least five attacks on dogs, in different states (Santa Catarina, São Paulo, Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul), have generated outrage in recent days.

If you highlight the text then it asks if you want it translated to English. Or copy and paste into Google translate.

That’s so sad, those poor dogs 🥲

Pretty accurate translation above. I would just say ‘across Brasil’ is better translation than ‘for Brasil’ in the second sentence but the meaning is alright.

Fucking hell, this needs a warning.

Yes, very upsetting, no wonder there were well attended demos! It's the fact that these rich shits might evade justice aswell

Thanks for all helpful replies but I really need a portuguese speaker who can bring me up to date? there is some info on social media about the case but insta doesn't usually translate it..and cant copy & paste. Brasil newspapers don't seem to be covering it much.

For people who may be triggered would advise NOT to read details of the case, extremely upsetting, really got to me.

Thank you
