No country For Elephants?

India offers some of the strangest set of contrasting juxtapositions when it comes to wildlife. With animals being an integral part of the celebrated cultural and religious ethos, it comes as no surprise when one comes across temples where milk is offered to snakes or abodes where monkeys and langurs are as much a part of the milieu as devotees. In the heartland of India, one can see ladies offering the ‘rotis'(chapati) to cows and stray dogs. It is the land where animals are embedded so deep in the religion that half the deities have an animal as their preferred mode of transportation.

Decorations and delight all around, the celebration is impregnated in the air and as hoards of spectators huddle together, the human perimeter around the field sinks in the fanfare. The frenzy of both locals and foreign tourists reaches an avalanche- a rural celebration of epic proportions? Wait.

Share a photo of your dog!

Starting today, we would be celebrating the bond that transgresses the said and done, the friendship between those with ‘two leg’ & those with four- be it your pet, the stray that you befriended, your cousin’s pet or the like. The concept of “interspecies altruism” would be cherished and communicated through YOU. So mail me your pictures, anecdotes, tales about your furry friends and I’d be more than happy to post them for the world to see!
