Imphal, September 29 2013:
People for Animal (PFA), Thoubal has taken a black pond turtle in their custody after a woman rescued it from Kongba Kshetri Leikai.
Weighing around 4 kg, the turtle was netted by one Konsam Premkumari while fishing in Kongba river on September 27 .
Although, many locals insisted Premkumari to sell the animal to them at Rs 1500, Premkumari's sister Binodini, who is an animal lover, turned down their request and handed it over to PFA Thoubal, said a press release.
Saying that black pond turtle is rarely seen in Manipur, the press release said that it would be released with the guidance from State Wildlife Department.
