Death trap

[Samrat Sarkar]

A pond Heron was caught and hanged upside down over a pond by some fishermen to scare other birds. Although they covered the entire pond by fishing net. Latter we rescued him alive.

How selfish we can get . How can someone think to do such a thing? They have fishing net all over the pond still they want to scare away the birds. Good to know you resuced it alive. Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing.

This is a sickening sight. Highly condemnable behaviour. Our greed has made us grab all the Earth's resources. We are forgetting that we humans as well as all other species on earth are linked by a complex thread of ecological linkages. Inhibiting or eliminating a species leads to destabilizing the entire edifice. When will we learn?

A sad scene. This picture reflects the cruelty and selfishness of humans. We humans are poisonous. Nice to know that sir, you could rescue it alive.
