Just as the dust from the melamine recall was settling, pets began getting ill and dying after eating tainted chicken jerky treats imported from China. At last count, over 5,600 pets had been made sick and 600 dogs died, and the FDA still had no clue what the problem was.
The tainted treats, which were pulled from store shelves some six years after reports of illness and death began, were “reformulated” and returned to the marketplace in early 2014.

Also, I would be willing to bet there were a LOT more illnesses and deaths than the numbers mentioned above.
