The situation at the forest department nursery in Vadgaon Sawtal, Ahilyanagar, is a heartbreak that cannot be ignored. For over three months, 21 leopards have been confined to cramped, suffocating cages. These majestic animals are in a dying state. Due to the extreme heat, foul smells, and constant congestion, they are hitting the bars in distress, causing themselves further injury. Two leopards have already died, and another is currently fading away. Our heritage teaches us "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam" the world is one family. This sacred philosophy does not just apply to humans; it encompasses every living soul. When we imprison these creatures in such inhumane conditions, we are failing our role as guardians of this global family. To ignore their suffering is to ignore a part of ourselves. The Reality on the Ground: 3 Months of imprisonment in nursery cages. Zero Movement due to cramped, inadequate spacing. Rising Temperatures making hot cages a death trap. These leopards deserve dignity and relocation to a proper facility, not a slow death in a cage. We cannot stay silent while our wildlife is treated with such neglect. We call upon the authorities to intervene immediately before more lives are lost. @MahaForest @peta @petaindia @CMOMaharashtra @PMOIndia @HMOIndia @WildlifeSOS @moefcc @rashtrapatibhvn @priyankac19 @RenukaCCongress @dilthi_gujarati

🚨 URGENT: 21 LEOPARDS ILLEGALLY CONFINED IN CAGES since 3 Months - 2 Died in Cages in trauma – AHILYANAGAR, #MAHARASHTRA #INDIA BY #HumanMenace 🚨 📍 Location: Forest Department Nursery, Vadgaon Sawtal, Parner Taluka, Ahilyanagar District (Ahmednagar), Maharashtra 📅 Duration: Approx. 3 months Proof : Nitin Alkute - Jivdaya Foundation instagram.com/reel/DVVtoKTjQ… 3 महीनों से जिला अहमदनगर, तालुका पारनेर, वडगांव सावताल में वन विभाग में 21 तेंदुए पिंजरों में कैद हैं। तेंदुवे तड़पकर मर रहे है कम जगह, लोगोंकी भीड़, धूप से गर्म पिंजरे,दुर्गंध के कारण, तेंदुए पिंजरों से टकराकर घायल हो रहे हैं, 2 तेंदुए मर चुके हैं और 1 तेंदुआ मरने की हालत में है Serious allegations have emerged that 21 leopards (Schedule I protected species) have been confined in small cages for nearly three months. Reports indicate: • Severe overcrowding • Extreme heat exposure in metal cages • Lack of movement • Stress injuries from hitting cage bars • Foul smell and poor hygiene • 2 leopards already dead • 1 leopard reportedly in critical condition If true, this constitutes a grave violation of wildlife protection laws. --- ⚖️ LEGAL POSITION 🐆 Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 Leopard (Panthera pardus) is a Schedule I species — highest level of protection. Section 9 Prohibits hunting. The definition of “hunting” includes capturing, trapping, or confining wild animals. Section 39 Wild animals are Government property and must be managed strictly under law. Section 40 Possession requires legal authorization and certification. Section 51 Punishment: Imprisonment up to 3 years (can extend in Schedule I cases), fine, or both. Improper confinement leading to death may also attract additional criminal liability. PCA ACT 1960 BNS 325 --- ❗ Key Concern Even if leopards were captured due to conflict mitigation: • Prolonged caging without rehabilitation • Overcrowding • Heat exposure • Denial of natural movement — may amount to cruelty, mismanagement, and violation of established wildlife handling protocols. Wildlife capture is meant to be temporary and humane — not indefinite imprisonment in extreme conditions. --- 📜 Constitutional Duty Article 51A(g) of the Indian Constitution: "It shall be the duty of every citizen to protect and improve the natural environment including forests and wildlife." This is not activism — this is constitutional responsibility. --- 🛑 Immediate Demands 1️⃣ Independent veterinary inspection 2️⃣ Medical examination of all 21 leopards 3️⃣ Postmortem report of deceased leopards made public 4️⃣ Transfer to proper wildlife rescue / rehabilitation facilities 5️⃣ Inquiry into forest department handling and accountability 6️⃣ CCTV & condition documentation --- 🏛 Authorities Accountable @moefcc @byadavbjp (Bhupender Yadav – MoEFCC) @WCCBHQ (Wildlife Crime Control Bureau) @PMOIndia @narendramodi @MahaForest @Dev_Fadnavis @CMOMaharashtra @PetaIndia @asharmeet02 @DEEPSBISHNOI_ @TribalArmy @Kapil_Jyani_ @Protect_Wldlife @domdyer70 @joedelhi @RavindraBhati__ @law_ninja @ntca_india @iTIGERSHROFF @BishnoiYouth @ANMLDFR @Amitava63051821 @ShrijeetNair06 @Sspyder085 @SnowPrince077 @JahnaviIyer @animalsaveindia @Wildlife_Update @ProtectTheWild_ @WildIndiaNews @SheldrickTrust @XposeTrophyHunt @WWFINDIA @fpjindia @TheJohnAbraham @KapilSharmaK9 #Leopards #Wild #SaveLeopards #ReleaseLeopards #StopAnimalCruelty #Animals #Wildlife #NarendraModi #SaveWildlife

🚨 INDIA IS NOT SAFE -WE’RE JUST PRETENDING IT IS 🚨 Not a day passes without news of rape or sexual assault. Every day — a new survivor. Every day — the same hollow outrage. This isn’t isolated crime. It’s SYSTEMATIC COLLAPSE RAPE HAS BECOME ROUTINE Women are attacked at home, at work, on the streets, even in hospitals. Calling 112 is no longer a guarantee of safety - let that sink in 🤡 Children aren’t spared. Infants. Newborns. And still the excuses begin: • What was she wearing? • Why was she out late night? What excuse do you give when a baby is raped? This isn’t ignorance anymore - it’s normalised misogyny protected by silence. ⚖️ Justice crawls. Cases drag on. Rapists get bail, protection, anonymity. And now even voiceless animals aren’t safe - abused and violated because they can’t speak. 🚨Dogs. Cows. Wildlife. What kind of society does this? A nation that can’t protect women, children, or animals is not broken by ACCIDENT it is broken by CHOICE The silence of powerful institutions, even the Supreme Court, is deafening. If there’s more urgency for dog bites than rape statistics, then the real danger isn’t on the streets - it’s in what power refuses to confront. 📉 No accountability = more violence. Women unsafe. Children unsafe. Animals unsafe. ☑️🤡And the most dangerous species roaming free-is still the one pretending nothing is wrong. #ProtectWomen #JusticeDelayedJusticeDenied #EndRapeCulture #StopAnimalCruelty #NoMoreSilence #Chhattisgarh #korba @Delhiite_ @DipshikhaGhosh @TARUNspeakss @Abhivridhi_Vani @NalinisKitchen @Infinite_Void29 @suktabombil @vfanimals11 @th_anonymouse @desi_brat @leftzalwaysrite @jaysampat53 @HawkBorder @logicalindian05 @tannies0505 @guptadas_anando @AnjellBejanian @TheViditsharma @SusruthiVempati @sanjay_daddy

If you relocate a dog, cat or any animal then you can be jailed! There is a law in place for that! Authorities make it clear relocation is illegal! Asli Mudda deeply emphasized on laws and how it's being misused. People spreading fake propaganda are anti elements #SaveIndianDogs

@MCD_Delhi @DelhiPolice @CMODelhi @gupta_rekha illegal hoarding on wall. Misuse of PM/CM images. Defacement Act 2007: 50K fine + 1 year jail. Remove NOW! MCD inaction.
