Blackbuck Fawn Rescued After Nearly 45 Days With Farmer

A young female blackbuck wandered into farmland near Bajraguma village.

Stray dogs chased her, and a local farmer took her into his home and cared for her.

She stayed there for nearly one-and-a-half months.

Forest department workers later learned about her and brought her to their office.

A veterinarian checked and treated her, and she was found to be healthy.

On Friday, the fawn was released into a nearby reserved forest.

Local people praised the need for better awareness and quicker action to protect blackbucks.

They also asked how the department did not know about the fawn sooner.
