Subject : STRAY ANIMALS
Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed daily, I would like to express the difficulties caused by stray animals in our locality. Ours is a newly developed colony situated on the outskirts of the city.
Stray animals are a great threat to pedestrians & vehicle drivers even in the heart of the city. In the city area the dairy owners let loose their domestic animals to graze on the domestic waste and garbage. Many a time the life of citizens is endangered on account of accidents caused by these animals. Stray animals are ubiquitous in every street and colony of the city. The rabid dogs are a major source of threat to the children playing in the streets and parks. Our colony faces the same problem in a different manner. The villagers Jet loose their animals to wander about the streets and colonies of the city. Although there should not be any shortage of fodder in the country side, yet the animals stray into residential colonies. The small kitchen gardens & the parks are damaged. In the evening the cows move straight to their owners for being milched.

In the city one may report matter to the municipal authorities but in this case the residents are in a fix about whom they should approach with complaint about the menace of stray animals. The roads are defiled by their dung. Some times the animals fight with each other and rush into homes. When villagers are approached they are not concerned at all. On the contrary they collectively threaten the residents.
We hope that the authorities concerned would look into the matter and take immediate steps to solve the problems of the residents.
Thanking you,
Yours truly,
for Residents Welfare Society
