Sub: Increasing cruelty towards animals
Respected Sir
I wish to bring attention to the people on the continuous cruelty towards animals through the columns of your esteemed daily.
We are waking up to the news of animals dying all over the world every single day. Most animals are being preyed on human hands. The recent incident of five dogs being poisoned near the Gariahat area was a shock to all of us. The puppies who were only three months old were brutally poisoned by some local boys. They were taking shelter under the garage in one of the houses. However, the innocent puppies were found dead the next morning. It is a matter of great concern, that we are killing innocent lives for our own sake. We are meant to live together with the animals who are a part of nature too. This is happening because of a lack of compassion and kindness in us in today’s world. It is time for us to unite together and give our animals the love they deserve.
I sincerely hope that people will be more aware of this kind of brutal behavior and take necessary actions to stop such hate and inhumanity. The animals have the right to live just like us.
Yours sincerely

Sub: Animals suffering during festivals
Respected Sir
I wish to express my sincere concern about the suffering of animals during festivals. I would be highly obliged if you allow me space on your esteemed daily.
Animals go through a lot of pain and torture by people during the festivals. Recently, on Holi, the kids in our locality threw extremely poor quality colors on the body of the animals. One of the cats started shedding a huge amount of fur from its body. The other cats and dogs were also running frantically to escape the situation. Later on, we found that all those innocent animals have developed severe skin rashes on their body. I feel quite upset about such behavior of the children, It is our duty to teach them empathy and to treat the animals kindly. Animals should never become an object for our entertainment.
I earnestly urge everyone to pay heed to this grave issue and teach their children the right kind of behavior.
Yours sincerely

Sub: Inhuman treatment of animals in entertainment parks
Respected Madam
I wish to bring attention to the ongoing ill-treatment of animals in entertainment parks through space in your esteemed daily.
Animals have always fascinated human beings over the years. Although the use of animals in the circus has been banned by the authorities there are still some entertainment parks that still use animals. Dolphins, seals are shown for entertainment purposes in many parks all over the world. The animals are injected with various kinds of drugs and are exploited for commercial usage. They are deprived of their natural habitat and forced to live in an artificial environment. Many dolphins have died in this process in the last few years. We must stop such inhuman treatments of animals immediately to save the lives of these innocent creatures.
I sincerely hope my concern will unnerve people’s conscience and collectively we will be able to put an end to this brutality.
Yours sincerely

Sub: Cruelty towards animals inside the zoo
Respected Sir
Through this letter published in your esteemed daily, I want to draw attention to the maltreatment of animals inside the zoos.
Animals even inside the zoo are not safe nowadays. They are anyway deprived of their freedom and have to survive within the four walls of a cage. In spite of that, the zoo authorities do not take utmost care of the animals. They are not properly fed and mostly kept in unhygienic places. Visitors also are extremely cruel towards these pure creatures. They throw packets, stones, etc at the animals which often hurt the animals. Also, people unnecessarily irritate the animals to take photos of them. Some animals while being transferred from forests to zoos are hurt due to the manhandling. Many young animals get injured in this process. It is our responsibility to ensure the safety of the animals.
We must be more accountable for our actions and the authorities should pay proper attention to the well-being of the animals. We have to prevent this kind of cruelty towards animals.
Yours sincerely
