Spain's north-eastern city of Tarragona has threatened to use DNA1 analysis of dog droppings to track down owners who fail to clear up their pet's mess.

西班牙东北部城市塔拉戈纳扬言要对狗狗的粪便进行DNA分析，以追查不清理自己宠物狗粪便的主人。
 
The coastal2 Mediterranean3 city would work with a local university to create a DNA database4 of registered dogs that could be used to identify their owners, said Ivana Martinez, the city's city councillor for public spaces, on news radio Cadena Ser.
 
Droppings found on the street or in parks could then be matched through the DNA database to a registered pet, and its owner issued with a fine, she said.
 
"Right now, unless the police are at the scene at the right moment it is very difficult to know who is breaching5 the rules," Martinez said.
 
Pet owners will have to cover the cost of the DNA testing in addition to paying a fine.
 
Martinez said the city wanted the database to be up and running "as soon as possible" but did not provide a date.
 
Tarragona, a city of 135,000 people which is known for its wealth of Roman ruins, including a seaside amphitheatre, has more than 2,800 registered dogs, according to city hall.
