In the past few years, a number of conflicts between individuals over stray animals and pet animals has increased in urban areas. What was once a minor issue has now become a point for debate in housing societies, on the streets, etc. According to experts, rather than converting this into a conflict, a balance needs to be maintained between humans and animals so that they can live peacefully.
Due to rapid urbanization, there has been a decrease in open spaces and a corresponding increase in waste management issues. This has a direct impact on the natural habitat of animals. Hence, stray dogs and cats are often seen in residential complexes, markets, etc.
