Call for a ban on human contraceptive injections in animals

Activists in Sri Lanka are pushing for a ban on the use of human contraceptive injections on animals, arguing that the practice is harmful to both the animals and the environment.

The injections, which are commonly used on wild elephants and other animals, have been linked to a range of negative effects, including decreased fertility, hormonal imbalances, and other health issues.

According to animal rights groups in Sri Lanka, the use of human contraceptive injections on animals can cause significant harm to the animals, both physically and psychologically, and can also have unintended consequences for the wider ecosystem.

However, opponents of the practice say that there are more effective and less harmful ways to control animal populations, such as through habitat management, natural predation, and non-invasive population monitoring techniques.
