The Issue

Sadly on the 21st of June a Native Sri Lankan Leopard was brutally killed by the enraged villagers in the Ambalpuram area in Kilinochchi after it attacked a Wildlife Officer and a few villagers. It is my belief that there must have been better ways to capture the animal and transfer it to a different location without taking its precious life away. 

The videos are all over social media showing how vile and disgusting of the behaviors  of the villagers are that they mutilate the animal even after beating it to death. 

These animals are assets to the world and especially to our country Sri Lanka and it is our responsibility to protect the mother nature and its belongings. 

It is a very emotional and heart breaking incident. Please sign the petition and bring those who committed the crime in front of Justice.
