SWD gears up to rescue black bear
Bear baiting has been banned in province since 2015
KARACHI:
There are at least three black bears in the province being kept illegally, and the Sindh Wildlife Department (SWD) has been searching for them.
Earlier this week, the SWD managed to locate one of them.
In a video available with The Express Tribune, villagers, traced to a remote in Naushero Feroze district, can be seen cheering on as a chained bear is forced to fend himself against a large white dog bent on attacking him. The cruel game - bear baiting - has been banned in the province since February 2015.
