Vocational felicitation of staff at Katraj Animal Rescue centre was done by RC Pune Katraj. This staff has worked tirelessly during the COVID lockdown period and taken care of animals. Each of the staff members was recognised with thermal bottles which they can use on duty for safe drinking water. We were fortunate to have Mr. Neelimkumar Khaire ( world record holder of staying with venomous snakes for 72 hours) to grace the function. On this occasion, RCP Katraj also donated 31000/- to the Indian Herpetological Society for wildlife conservation work.
