Food for stray animals demanded

Wednesday, 25 March 2020 | PNS | BHUBANESWAR

The People for Animals and the Dhyan Foundation have started feeding monkeys at Kandagri and Udayagiri and stray dogs at different places in the city in view of closure of food sources for them due to closure of roadside hotels and tourist spots for COVID-19 threat.

Foundation secretary Jiban Ballav Das said even as the Union Government has declared veterinary feeding as an essential service, but no government agency is yet to make any provision to provide foods to stray animals. Forest department has also not done any provision for survival of monkeys at Khandagiri-Udayagiri caves in this critical time.

“If animals will not get foods properly, we will face another challenge of mass death of animals due to starvation in coming days. Now, general people, Government and NGO, corporate houses should come forward to provide food and healthcare to all animals those,” urged Das.
