In another man-animal conflict, the animal has taken the harsh injury. Randeep Hooda recently shared a video of a leopard gravely injured in a road accident and the viral video is gut-wrenching.?
In the video, one can see a severely injured leopard, trying to get up but failing to do so, it was injured in an accident.?
It drags its body to a bike nearby and tries to bite the tire- it could be the vehicle that caused its accident.?
The video was shared with the caption, ¡®Yesterday it was leopard, today a elephant. These #roadkills will keep happening, rather they will increase with time. Robust mitigation measures on proposed and existing projects is a must. #SaveWildlife¡¯.
He went on to tag official handles of Prakash Javdekar, Nitin Gadkari, and another Ministry of Environment Forest and Climate Change and Ministry of Road Transport and Highways officials.?
In the Twitter thread, Hooda shared the picture of an elephant who seems to be crushed under a truck and apparently dead.?
Incidents like these can only be avoided if strong measures are taken to avoid such conflicts and take care that animals are not injured in road accidents. It requires stronger vigilance on part of the drivers too.?
