We all have childhood memories of Zoo but unfortunately, the condition of zoo all over Pakistan is getting worst. We have ignored the animals kept in the zoo, by not providing them with proper care.
Recently a video of a bear, who is severely ill, went viral on social media. People reacted to the video, showing empathy for the animal. A journalist reacted to the video on twitter by taking a dig at DC commissioner Islamabad. DC commissioner cleared that it was not his jurisdiction to indulge in the matter and encouraged others to go there and help instead of just blaming others.
The zoo is getting attention gain due to the social media. As the government institution are busy blaming each other. , while animals have no water and shortage of food is becoming a reason for their death.
The court has ordered to save the animals from further harm and sought for immediate response.
Similarly, Karachi zoo condition is worst. No proper medical treatment is provided to the animals. Routine medical checkups are not happening and the list is endless.
KMC (Karachi Municipal Cooperation) have failed to manage Zoo. KMC has claimed that they do not have sufficient funds to maintain the zoo.
