Stray animals get reflective collar for safer roads
Animal Welfare Trust Ekamra (AWTE), a voluntary organization has launched a first of its kind campaign in Odisha under which stray dogs and cattle are being fitted with reflective collar belts. AWTE founder Purabi Patra said, "We started the drive on Sunday evening and tied the reflective collar around necks of nearly 50 stray dogs along the national highway-16 in Khandagiri area here. Our purpose is to cover all stray dogs and cattle along the NH." The collars reflect the light from vehicles in order to protect both these animals and motorists to avoid ramming into each other,thus preventing road accidents at night.
