You see different kinds of people on the road - ones who are focused on the road while driving so that they safely reach their destination, and others who do not care how they are driving. Often, due to this careless attitude, puppies and other animals get hit by vehicles and sometimes die.

To curb this and save stray dogs from being hit by cars on the road, this man from Mangaluru tied reflective collars around their necks.

Thousif Ahmad has been doing this for the past 1.5 months, and he says that no dog has been injured since then. "It has been 1.5 months I've started this project & luckily not a single dog with a collar around its neck has been injured,” he told ANI.
