people for animals pune presentation

What do you expect from an ordinary hospital?

Ambulance

X-ray Machine

to know the extent and nature of injury to

bones

Sonography

Oxygen / Ventilator

Intensive Care Unit

Operation Theatre

And then there are…

•CT-Scans•MRI Scans•Radiation Machines•PET scanners and more..

What if there were no hospital ?

Imagine if you had to die without help

And wait for months to die…till you rot while

you die.

You don’t die of major illness

Only a small wound, minor infection worsens

till you die

For thousands of Animals in Pune….

This is the harsh truth

300 sq km of Pune

And till we entered the scene the animals had

nowhere to go

This is what they go through…..

As we talk, as we debate

They are ‘hit and run’

And people just watch them die. It takes days

at time

Trains collide and injure them

And they lie anxiously hoping for some help.

Subjected to ‘little’ mischiefs

That have fatal consequences

Drenched with acid

Because someone thinks they are a

nuisance

Injured by gun shots

As they are easy targets

Ingest plastic

And then they lie untreated

Are dumped

While they are a few days old to die of thirst

and starvation

“stray” into the city

And are attacked or burnt alive

‘“Hanged” till death’

Without a crime. With no trial or defence.

Maggots

Insects eat the animal alive from inside till it is

dead

Overworked

‘Beasts of burden’ are burdened till their legs

give away.

And they fall down

They continue to suffer till they ultimately fall

down.

On the name of god

Their mouths are stitched and they

abandoned to die after ‘nagpanchami’

There is light at the end of the

tunnel.And an institution in

making that gives them hope.

There are people who care

They are calledpeople for animals
