Mumbai, Feb 14 (PTI) Two injured golden jackals have been shifted to a facility in Mumbai for treatment and rehabilitation after they were rescued in Raigad.
The treatment of both animals has begun at Resqink Association for Wildlife Welfare here and some test reports are awaited to diagnose their complications and initiate advanced treatment, the organisation’s founder-president Pawan Sharma said on Saturday.
“The two were rescued from Karnala and JNPT on Friday in coordination with the forest department, local animal welfare NGOs and activists. The two animals are being treated by veterinarians Dr Priti Sathe and Dr Kirti Sathe at RAWW,” he added.
