In two separate incidents, multiple dogs were found dead under suspicious circumstances in India. In Pappureddiyapatti near Peraiyur, eight dogs were poisoned, leading to police investigations that implicated a local man, Muthurajan. Meanwhile, in Ambalapuzha, Kerala, at least 11 stray dogs were discovered dead on temple grounds, with residents suspecting poisoning; however, no formal complaints have been filed yet. The stray dog issue in Kerala has been escalating, with reported dog bite cases surging over 200% from 2013 to 2021. Local animal rights activists are seeking justice for the poisoned dogs, highlighting the ongoing struggle with stray dog populations in the region. Authorities are yet to receive formal complaints regarding the Ambalapuzha incident, despite preliminary investigations underway.
