    I am wondering what will happen to the rescued cattle.
    No one will adopt them. No temple will give them shelter.
    No Hindu's will come forward to look after them.
    The cops do not have enough funds or place to look after them.
    I am sure that they will be sold off on the sly to some butcher!.
    An animal (Chicken, Goat, Cow, Buffalo etc) along with humans has to die one day.
    How they die is a mystery - By accident, by slaughter, by war etc. etc.
    Why is there so much hype about rescuing the cattle?
    Let us know the follow up as to what did happen to the rescued cattle. I have read more than 100 articles about cattle being rescued by some organizations. But what happened to them?
    Can someone like NAGESH NAYAK MAMU throw some light on this?
