Gandacherra, Dec 24: On Monday, two youths from the Sarma area of Gandacherra, Atish Das and Abhijit Rudra Pal, rescued a deer they found entangled in vines in the dense forest along the Dalapati to Mog Para road. The incident occurred on Monday night while they were returning to Gandacherra from old Dalapati on a motorcycle.

Demonstrating commendable courage, the duo stopped their motorcycle, freed the deer, and decided to hand it over to the Gandacherra Forest Department. They officially handed the deer over to forest department officials at Sarma bazar on Tuesday morning.

The youths emphasized the responsibility of humankind in conserving wildlife. They highlighted how the indiscriminate killing of wild animals disrupts environmental balance, urging everyone to save rather than harm wildlife. "If you encounter wild animals in the forest, do not kill them. Instead, help protect them," they stated.
