The number of homeless animals increases every day. In Africa, millions of dogs and cats are forced to stray every year because of their owners’ inability to provide for them, lack of sympathy for animals, and ignorance of the laws protecting animals.
Stray animals are subjected to harsh weather conditions, they go without food and shelter, are sick, and cruelly treated whenever they are seen. They reproduce uncontrollably thereby increasing the number of animals on the streets.
The dogs in the photograph were found loitering in Kampala Capital City. They looked hungry, unhealthy, and are homelessness. What is heartbreaking is the way humans just pass by them paying no attention at all.
There is need to raise awareness about animal protection in all communities in Uganda. Help African Animals is committed to saving the lives of animals by influencing the human mindset. We travel village to village and raise awareness about animal protection.
Animals do not speak. Let’s speak for them.
