Our rescued camel Raja has been with us for over 15 years! In 2007 his owner put a signboard on his body advertising the date of slaughter and price per pound of meat – it was even seen on TV! After rescuing the camel from the illegal slaughter, it took several years of fighting court cases before Karuna Society won and he could live with us – a peaceful, comfortable and care-free life. He made friends with the other animals in our shelter, and was happy.

Raja had a loving puja burial surrounded by staff who cared for him. Rest in Peace, Raja! 🐪🥰
