3. Laws to protect endangered species
The law strictly provides that it is punishable with imprisonment and fine if any animal is treated with cruelty or if given poisonous food, there are serious consequences attached to it.
Transport any animal in any manner that will cause him or her unnecessary suffering. This includes loading cows into trucks without ramps and overcrowding the vehicle as well as tying up pigs and carrying them on cycles. All violations of Section 11 are punishable with a fine of Rs 100 and/or up to three months in jail.
.It is illegal to kill homeless animals. Citizens may only report what they perceive as a nuisance to the municipal authorities. The municipality is required to maintain an animal pound for animals
Sections 428 and 429 of the Indian Penal Code make it illegal to maim or cause injury to any animal.
Stray animals may not be used for research. The Rules for Experimental Animals, as formulated by the Committee for the Control and Supervision of Experimental Animals, state that only animals bred for the purpose of research by institutes registered by the Committee may be used for experimentation (although, of course, such animals suffer and feel pain just as much as strays or any other animal).
