Udupi Admin Seizes Cages from Illegal Animal Rescue Centre in Saligrama

Udupi district officials seized a set of animal cages from an illegal rescue centre in Saligrama on Wednesday, following a raid that uncovered unlicensed animal handling practices.

The centre, which housed cattle and other livestock, operated without the necessary permits and violated local wildlife regulations. Authorities investigated after complaints from local residents concerned about the conditions of the animals.

The removal of the cages marks a step toward curbing illegal animal rescue operations in the region, officials said. The action was taken after a regulatory audit highlighted non-compliance with animal welfare norms. Source: Google News – Udupi District.
