Animal Viral Video: Social media users’ fury and worries regarding animal care in Haldwani, Uttarakhand, have been stirred by a viral video. The video shows a man brandishing a big stick as he appears to be upset about street dogs barking at him. The unsettling series of events that follow culminates in the local authorities becoming involved and in a confrontation with a well-known animal rescuer and feeder.
Man Provoked by Barking Dogs
The unidentified man is seen strolling down the street in the video that user “ghar ka kalesh” uploaded to Twitter, clearly agitated by the dogs’ barking. He then files a police report against Shivansh, the community’s devoted feeder and rescuer. The man is supposedly pushed by the police to take revenge on the barking dogs, which causes the scenario to drastically change as tensions rise.
Unsettlingly, Shivansh is allegedly confronted by the cops with hostility when he steps in to defend the dogs. The incident in which Shivansh gets smacked by a police officer and then forcibly driven away in a police car is captured on camera. The apparent abuse of power and the lack of protection for animal caregivers in this incident have startled and horrified a lot of viewers.
Shivansh Files Formal Complaint
Shivansh filed a formal complaint with the SP office after the incident in an attempt to hold people accountable and bring an end to the unjustified aggression he experienced. Social media users have widely condemned the video, calling for an investigation into the actions of the participating officers as well as the way the local animals are treated.
This unsettling event serves as a clear reminder of how crucial it is to protect animal rights and how law enforcement personnel should be properly trained and made aware of how to handle animals and people who fight for their wellbeing. The video has rekindled conversations on animal protection legislation and society’s obligations to our furry friends as it keeps making the rounds on the internet.
