[Animal Emergency]Even though illegal animal traps are illegal, animal traps are still banned, and some animals are injured as a result! This morning, a number of steel cables, lotus clamps and two animal traps were found in Lai Tung East Village, Sha Tau Kok. Two dogs were even trapped in the steel ropes. Fortunately, enthusiastic citizens discovered and called the police in time. Police officers and firefighters and SPCA inspectors arrived at the scene to follow up. The two dogs ran away immediately after being rescued by firefighters. Their injuries are unknown. What is even more outrageous is that some citizens said they had witnessed someone dismembering wild boars on the mountain. It is estimated that the traps are related to illegal hunting of wild boars.

The incident took place at the top of a hill in Lai Tung East Village, Sha Tau Kok. This morning, a citizen heard a dog whining, and immediately went up the hill to check. He even found a dog with its feet tied by a steel rope, unable to move. Later, he found a dog 10 meters away. There was another dog outside who was also bandaged. The citizen immediately listened to the police, and firefighters arrived at the scene to untie the rope, and the two dogs immediately ran down the mountain.

Police officers and CPCA inspectors went to the scene to investigate and found that there were multiple steel cables, lotus clamps and two animal traps at the scene. Police launched an investigation into the incident and no one has been arrested yet. It is known that a citizen once witnessed a villager dismembering a wild boar carcass on the mountain, and the relevant video was filmed with conclusive evidence. It is estimated that the placement of the trap this time is also related to the illegal hunting of wild boars by the villagers.
