KARACHI: The Sindh High Court (SHC) has released its written verdict in a plea demanding the relocation of a bear cub “Rano” at the Karachi Zoo, ARY News reported on Monday.
The SHC while rejecting the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation’s (KMC) report, remarked that everything is not good at the Zoo, adding that the condition of animals at the zoo was alarming.
The written judgment states that the administration is only earning the money by caging the animals, but they too need care.
The court was astonished that how a single veterinary doctor can treat animals at the zoo?
The SHC instructed the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation to install an air cooler or air conditioner inside the enclosure of Rano the bear at the zoo within 48 hours.

The committee comprises of Dr Zaheer, Zehra Ali, M.H Heerzada, and Asma.
