Another deer found dead at Hyderabad University campus

Another male deer was found dead on University of Hyderabad campus on Sunday, the second in less than a week. Stray dogs chased two deer near the shooting range. "One of the deer tried to jump the wall to escape but hit the wall. The other deer escaped to the wooded area in the campus," said PhD scholar and wildlife activist Rohit Kumar Bondugula. This is the second incident of feral dogs killing deer on the campus. Earlier on December 22, a spotted deer was found dead. The activist alleged that there is no protection to the state animal of Telangana. He said that the Forest Department and the university have utterly failed to protect the animals. "There is a serious threat to the wildlife in the campus. If incidents continue at this alarming rate, the campus will no longer have any wildlife," he said. (IANS)
