The passerby was amused so he went on asking the man's name and he replied "Bruno" :)Roohi Bhatnagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278521377428515783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-73742889023604445162014-06-24T16:42:43.155+05:302014-06-24T16:42:43.155+05:30That happened almost half a century ago in a remot...That happened almost half a century ago in a remote village, Kalpana.

Nothing surprising about it. Conditions were such that dying animals could be a serious health hazard for people in days when vets were not available easily. The practice has not vanished from villages even today, I believe.
