Reality of animals in India
India is grappling with a severe stray animal crisis, with over 60 million animals living on the streets and 8.8 million in shelters (Source: The Mint). These animals face daily struggles, including hunger, disease, and abuse. Stray animals, especially dogs and cats, often suffer from malnutrition, untreated injuries, and various illnesses. Meanwhile, working animals like horses, donkeys, and cattle face brutal conditions.
The situation is further exacerbated by the alarming rate at which India’s wildlife is dwindling—450 plant species, 100 mammals, and 150 birds are currently identified as endangered, owing to the dual threats of habitat loss and poaching. Despite the commendable efforts of numerous NGOs and compassionate individuals, the resources available to care for these animals fall far short of what’s necessary. Milaap steps in to fill this critical void through Animal Welfare Fund, which aims to promote funding for rescue operations, medical care, and shelter for animals in need.
