COVID-19 AND STRAY ANIMALS

Sakshi Saini

COVID-19 has affected both humans and animals alike around the world. As lockdown and physical distancing measures are enacted, more people are staying home.  With restaurants and eateries downing shutters and food trucks parked at homes, strays have been struggling to find food to kill their hunger. They have nothing to eat, not even leftovers that they always relied on.
They are unable to say that doesn’t mean they don’t have emotions or they aren’t hungryThese dogs and cats have been depending on a whole community of friendly humans. Not having anybody around for so long is quite stressful for them. Apart from feeding stray animals humans have also played a huge role in taking care of their well-being.
