Multiple Stray Dog Deaths in Bhopal Under Investigation for Viral Infection or Poisoning

In Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, around 12 stray dogs have died within three days in areas including Shyamla Hills and Dharampuri, raising concerns among locals. While some residents allege deliberate poisoning, police and veterinary officials suggest a viral infection, possibly parvovirus, as the cause. Parvovirus is a contagious and often fatal disease affecting unvaccinated dogs, causing severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Authorities await veterinary reports to confirm the exact cause and are investigating the incidents.
