Wolves Kept in Captivity: Investigation into the Situation Needed

Reports of alleged animal cruelty in the city of Navoi have circulated on social media.

Some people who catch songbirds release the females. However, this decision is not always driven by concern for nature. In some cases, they do so because they want the birds to reproduce, ensuring that more birds will be available to catch in the future.

A complaint has been received alleging that more than 200 mature trees growing on the grounds of the Karshi District Medical Association in Kashkadarya Region were destroyed in connection with construction work. According to the complainant, the trees had previously been measured and documented, and most belonged to valuable tree species.

Measures to capture stray dogs and relocate them to shelters in Türkiye have sparked heated public debate. While the government emphasizes the need to regulate the situation involving stray animals and ensure public safety, animal welfare activists and ordinary citizens have expressed concerns that insufficient attention is being paid to the fate and well-being of the dogs.
