Umlando we Indlovu ependwe ngombala opinki eyafa emasontweni ambalwa ngemuva kokuthwebula izithombe Icala eNdiya livuse impikiswano enkulu yamazwe ngamazwe mayelana nokusetshenziswa kwezilwane kumaphrojekthi obuciko kanye nezokuvakasha. Lesi sigameko, esenzeke edolobheni laseJaipur, esifundazweni saseRajasthan, siveze ngokusobala izimo lapho la ma-pachyderm ehlala futhi esebenza khona kwenye yezindawo ezivakashelwa kakhulu ezweni.
Umlingiswa ongumuntu oyinhloko yale mpikiswano yi- Umthwebuli wezithombe waseRussia uJulia BurulevaOkwamanje, isikhungo sezindaba yiChanchal, indlovu endala esetshenziswa esimisweni. Phakathi kwezinsolo zokuthi ukuhlukunyezwa kwezilwane, ukwabiwa kwamasiko kanye nokuxhashazwa ngezinjongo zobuhleIziphathimandla zaseNdiya zivule uphenyo ukuze kucaciswe ukuthi ngabe kube nokulimala okuqondile esilwaneni noma cha nokuthi ngabe imigomo yezenhlalakahle iyahlonishwa yini.
Wayengubani uChanchal, indlovu epinki eyathinta izinhliziyo zengxenye yomhlaba?
Ngokusho kwemithombo yezindaba eyahlukene yaseNdiya kanye neyamazwe ngamazwe, UChanchal wayeyindlovu eneminyaka ephakathi kuka-65 no-70 ubudala owayehlala eHathi Gaon, indawo edumile eyaziwa ngokuthi “idolobhana lezindlovu,” eliseceleni kweJaipur. Le ndawo iyikhaya labahlali baseHathi Gaon, izilwane eziningi ezazisetshenziswa ngokomlando ngokuvakasha kwezivakashi kanye nemisebenzi ehlobene nomkhakha wezinsizakalo.
Umnikazi wendlovu uhlonzwe njengo U-Sadik Khan (ophinde abizwe ngo-Balu Khan kweminye imibiko)UKhan, ilungu lethimba elinomthwalo wokuphatha izilwane eHathi Gaon, uchazele abezindaba bendawo ukuthi uChanchal wayeke wasebenza emisebenzini ehlobene nezokuvakasha kanye nokuvakasha. umkhuba osakazeke kabanzi eRajasthan futhi eminyakeni yamuva nje eye yagxekwa kakhulu yizinhlangano zamalungelo ezilwane.
Kulesi simo, umthwebuli wezithombe waseRussia wafika eJaipur ngesikhathi sohambo lwamasonto amaningana futhi Wanquma ukufaka indlovu komunye wemisebenzi yakhe, ephefumulelwe —ngokusho kobufakazi bakhe — ukuba khona okunamandla kwalezi zilwane ekwakhiweni kwezakhiwo, ubuciko kanye nokuphila kwansuku zonke kwalokho okubizwa ngokuthi “iDolobha Elipinki”.
UChanchal wayesesigabeni esithuthukile sempilo yakhe; kokubili abezindaba bendawo nabamazwe ngamazwe bagcizelela okusobala ukuguguleka kwamazinyo abo kanye nokuguga kwakhe, izinto ezimbili ezazizoba yisihluthulelo kamuva empikiswaneni mayelana nezimbangela zangempela zokufa kwakhe.
Ukuthwebula izithombe: indlovu egcwele umbala opinki ngokuphelele
Ukukhiqizwa kobuciko kwenzeke ngo- Novemba 2025 eJaipurNgokusho kwe-Hindustan Times, i-Independent, kanye nezinye iziteshi zezindaba, uBuruleva wachitha cishe amasonto ayisithupha esifundeni futhi wanikela ingxenye enkulu yaleso sikhathi ekulungiseleleni lo msebenzi. Umqondo oyinhloko wawungukuthi dala kabusha isithombe sendlovu epinki phambi kwezakhiwo zendabuko zaseRajasthani, enomodeli ogqoke izingubo ezifanayo kanye nesimo esigcwele izimpawu zendawo.
Umdwebi ngokwakhe ulandise ukuthi amalungiselelo abe made: uvakashele amapulazi amaningana ezindlovu eHathi Gaon waze wathola umnikazi ozimisele. Ngokusho kwakhe, waze wavakashela ipulazi elifanayo izikhathi eziningana ukuze abonise ukuzimisela kwakhe futhi athole ukwethenjwa okudingekayo ukuze aqhube lesi sigaba.
Indawo ekhethiwe yokuthatha izithombe yayiyi ithempeli elilahliwe elinikezelwe kunkulunkulu wamaHindu uGaneshaIsithombe esihlobene eduze nesithombe sendlovu. Izithombe zathathwa lapho, zibonisa imodeli egqoke i-pink, eme kuChanchal, egcwele umbala opinki ogqamile ohlukile ezindongeni namasango endabuko egcekeni.
Lezi zithombe namavidiyo kwaqala kwabelwana ngawo kuma-akhawunti omculi ezinkundleni zokuxhumana, lapho Bathole izinkulungwane "zokuthandwa" kanye nokuphawula igxile kakhulu emthonjeni obonakalayo wesiphakamiso. Kodwa-ke, ithoni yengxoxo yashintsha ngokuphelele lapho kwaziwa ukuthi, emasontweni ambalwa ngemva kweseshini, uChanchal wayeseshonile.
Uhlobo luni lopende olusetshenzisiwe futhi lwahlala isikhathi esingakanani esilwaneni?
Elinye lamaphuzu abangele impikiswano enkulu yizinto ezisetshenziswe ukumboza lesi silwane. UBuruleva ugcizelela ukuthi sasetshenziswa i-gulal yempuphu ephilayoUmbala ofanayo ovame ukusetshenziswa emkhosini weHoli kanye noMkhosi Wezindlovu waseJaipur. Lo mbala wenziwe nge izithako ezisekelwe ezitshalweni ezifana nezimbali ezomisiwe, i-turmeric, i-beetroot kanye nesitashi, futhi ukusetshenziswa kwayo kusakazeke kakhulu emikhosini yendawo kokubili kubantu, futhi kwezinye izimo, ezilwaneni.
Umthwebuli wezithombe ugcizelela ukuthi Amapende ayekhiqizwa endaweni futhi ayakwazi ukubola.Walandela isiko lendawo, lapho izindlovu ezihlotshiswe ngemibala nemiklamo ziyingxenye yendawo yemikhosi yaseRajasthan. Ezinkundleni zakhe zokuxhumana, wagcizelela ngokuphindaphindiwe ukuthi, ngokombono wakhe, kwakuyisiko elikhona kakade ayefuna ukulibhala phansi futhi alifake emsebenzini wakhe.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, umnikazi wesilwane uchazele izikhungo zezindaba ezifana neRiphabhulikhi ukuthi Upende wafakwa imizuzu embalwa kuphela futhi wasuswa ngaphansi kweshumingokuqondile ukunciphisa noma yiluphi uhlobo lwengozi. Ngokusho kwale nguqulo, upende wafakwa kancane kancane ngokuhamba kwesikhathi—yize indlovu ibonakala ibomvana ngokuphelele ezithombeni—futhi njalo inezinto ezibhekwa njengezendabuko futhi okuthiwa ziphephile.
UBuruleva uphikise ngokuthi inhloso yakhe kwakungukuthi dala "ukuxhumana okuphilayo" nendawo ezungezile kanye nezindlela zayo zokuphilaLokhu, ngokombono wakhe, kuhlukanisa umsebenzi wakhe nezithombe ezikhiqizwe ubuhlakani bokwenziwa noma ukuphathwa kwedijithali kuphela. Uthi umkhuba wakhe wobuciko usekelwe ekusebenzisaneni nendawo kanye nezidalwa ezihlala kuyo, njalo, uthi, "ngokuvumelana nemvelo."
Ukufa kukaChanchal kanye nokuqala kophenyo
Impikiswano yaqala lapho kuvele obala ukuthi UChanchal ushone emavikini ambalwa noma ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ngemuva kweseshiniKuye ngomthombo, amanye ama-akhawunti akhuluma ngokufa ngoFebhuwari, cishe inyanga eyodwa ngemuva kokuqoshwa kwefilimu, kanti amanye abeka isikhathi eside kancane. Noma kunjalo, lezi zindaba zavusa intukuthelo phakathi kwezishoshovu kanye nabasebenzisi bezinkundla zokuxhumana.
Umnikazi wesilwane utshele abezindaba baseNdiya ukuthi Ukufa kwendlovu kwakungenxa yezizathu zemvelo ezihlobene nokuguga kwayo.Izikhulu eziningana ezivela ekomitini leHathi Gaon zigcizelele ukuthi Kwakungekho bufakazi bokuxhashazwa okuqondile Ngesikhathi seseshini, bakhumbula ukuthi imikhuba efana nokupenda noma ukuhlobisa izindlovu nge-gulal iphindaphindwa emikhosini yenkolo namasiko yesifunda.
Kodwa-ke, ezinye izinguqulo ezivele ezinkundleni zokuxhumana futhi ezibikwe yimithombo yezindaba ethile zikhuluma ngazo ubuthi obungenzeka noma ukucindezeleka okukhulu kwesilwane esidala kangaka, okwakungaba nomthelela ekwehleni kwempilo yaso iyonke. Nokho, lezi zimangalo azikasekelwa yimibiko esemthethweni eqinisekile.
Bebhekene nokucindezelwa ngumphakathi, Iziphathimandla zamahlathi nezemvelo zaseNdiya zivule uphenyo ukunquma ukuthi izinqubo zenhlalakahle yezilwane zilandelwe yini ngesikhathi seseshini. Inhloso ukucacisa ukuthi ukusetshenziswa kopende, ukuphathwa kwendlovu, noma izimo zokusebenza kungaba nomthelela yini ekufeni kwayo.
Ezigabeni zokuqala zophenyo, izikhulu zasendaweni zikhombisile ukuthi Kwakungekho bufakazi obucacile obuxhumanisa ngqo ukufa nokuthwebula izithombeKodwa-ke, leli cala liyaqhubeka nokubuyekezwa ngenxa yentukuthelo enkulu ebangelwe ezinkundleni zokuxhumana kanye nempikiswano enkulu yezenhlalo eliyidalile ngaphakathi nangaphandle kweNdiya.
Ukusabela ezinkundleni zokuxhumana: kusukela ekuthintekeni okubonakalayo kuya ekusolweni kokuxhashazwa
Ushintsho ekubonweni komphakathi lwalungazelelwe. Lokho okwakwabiwe ekuqaleni njengo iphrojekthi enomthelela omkhulu wobuhle Ngemva kokuba ukufa kwalesi silwane kwaziwa, saba yisisulu sokugxekwa okukhulu. Ukulandisa komthwebuli wezithombe kwakugcwele amazwana mayelana "nonya," "ukuntuleka kozwela," kanye "nokusebenzisa izilwane zasendle njengezinto zokukhangisa ku-Instagram."
Abasebenzisi abavela emazweni ahlukene baveze ukwenqaba kwabo ngemiyalezo efana nalena "Akuyona ubuciko uma kubangela ukuhlupheka"bebuza ukuthi ngabe yisiphi isiphakamiso esisebenzisa izilwane zasendle, ikakhulukazi ezindala, njengendlela ebonakalayo yokungenelela okubonakalayo. Abaningi baveze ukuthi, noma ngabe upende wawungowemvelo, inkinga yayikuwo kanye umqondo wokuphatha isidalwa esiphilayo njengendwangu elahlwayo.
Ngaphezu kwenkinga yomthelela ongase ube khona emzimbeni, ingxenye yomphakathi oku-inthanethi igxeke uBuruleva ngalokho abakucabangayo ukusetshenziswa kwamasiko kanye nokusetshenziswa okungatheni kwezimpawu zendawoNgalo mqondo, lo mdwebi wasolwa ngokusebenzisa kabi amasiko angaphandle ngaphandle kokuhlonipha umongo wezenhlalo noma impikiswano yangaphakathi esivele ikhona eNdiya mayelana nokuphathwa kwalezi zilwane.
Umthwebuli wezithombe, yena, uphinde wagcizelela lokho Akakholelwa ukuthi udlule noma yimiphi imigqa yokuziphatha. Ugcizelela ukuthi inhloso yakhe kwakuwukuhlukumeza lesi silwane, kodwa kwakuwukusebenza ngeqiniso lamasiko elalivele likhona ngaphambi kokufika kwakhe. Uthi umsebenzi wakhe uhlose ukubhala phansi nokuhumusha kabusha lokho akutholayo endaweni ngayinye, hhayi ukuphoqelela imikhuba emisha noma enobudlova.
Naphezu kwalezi zincazelo, igagasi lentukuthelo alikapheli. Kwabaningi, icala likaChanchal seliphenduke uphawu lokweqisa kwemboni yezithombe kanye nezokuvakasha okuhlangenwe nakholapho umthelela obonakalayo uvame ukubekwa phambili kunenhlalakahle yezilwane ezihilelekile.
Indima ye-PETA nezinye izinhlangano zamalungelo ezilwane
Inhlangano i-People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) eNdiya yayingomunye wabokuqala ukukhuluma ngokuqinile. Ngemigudu yayo esemthethweni, I-PETA igxeke ukusetshenziswa kukaChanchal ekuthathweni kwezithombe kanye nokufa kwakhe okwalandelaUveze ukuthi lesi silwane “sifanelwe okungcono” kunomsebenzi wamashumi eminyaka kanye nokuvalelisa okuzungezwe impikiswano.
Encwadini eya ku UNdunankulu uNarendra Modi Le nhlangano ifune ukuthi iziphathimandla zesifunda saseRajasthan ukuqeda ukugibela izindlovu kanye nokusetshenziswa kwazo ngezinjongo zokuvakasha kanye nokukhangisaNjengezinye izindlela, waphakamisa ukusetshenziswa kwezindlovu ezingamarobhothi, izimoto zikagesi ezihlotshisiwe, noma ezinye izixazululo zobuchwepheshe ezingahileli ukuxhaphaza izilwane eziphilayo.
Ngakho-ke icala leChanchal lengezwe ku- umlando omude wezikhalazo zokuhlukunyezwa kwezindlovu eNdiyaI-PETA nezinye izinhlangano zikhumbula izehlakalo zakamuva, njengezendlovu yaseMalti, okusolwa ukuthi yashaywa ngezinduku yizivakashi eFort Amer, noma ezendlovu yaseGouri, ezazihilelekile ekuhlaselweni kwabantu ngo-2022 nango-2024, izehlakalo ezazizovela ekucindezelekeni okungapheli lezi zilwane ezibhekene nakho.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, kucashunwe imibiko efana neyenhlangano i-World Animal Protection (WAP), elinganisela ukuthi Izindlovu eziphakathi kuka-2.700 no-3.500 zihlala ziboshiwe emazweni ahlukahlukene ase-Asia, amaningi awo eNdiya, nokuthi cishe ama-75% asebenza emisebenzini ehlobene nezokuvakasha, kusukela ekuhambeni ngezinyawo kuya emibukisweni noma ekuthathweni kwezithombe ezinkundleni zokuxhumana.
Lezi zinhlangano zigcizelela ukuthi, nakuba ezinye izinhlobo zikhula zixhumana nabantu, Izindlovu ziseyizilwane zasendle futhi azifuywa. ngomqondo oqinile. Ngakho-ke, bacabanga ukuthi ukubaphoqa ukuba benze umsebenzi ophoqelelwe, ukubafaka ohlelweni olunzima, noma ukubasebenzisa njengento ekhangayo izivakashi kuyindlela yokuxhaphaza okufanele ivinjelwe noma ivinjelwe ngokuqondile.
Isiko, ezokuvakasha kanye nenhlalakahle yezilwane: impikiswano edlula i-India
Iziphathimandla kanye nabavikeli bamasiko eRajasthan bavame ukukhomba ukuthi Izindlovu zinendawo ebalulekile emasikweni amaHindu Futhi sekungamakhulu eminyaka, bebeyingxenye yemibuthano, imikhosi, kanye nemikhuba yenkolo. Isithombe salezi zilwane ezihlotshiswe ngokucebile, ezihlotshiswe ngemibala, izindwangu, kanye namatshe ayigugu, sigxile kakhulu emcabangweni wezwe lonke.
Kodwa-ke, izinhlangano zamalungelo ezilwane kanye namanye amalungu omphakathi zigcizelela ukuthi Umehluko phakathi kokuhlonipha nokuphathwa kabi uye waba sobala kakhulu.ikakhulukazi ngokwanda okukhulu kwezokuvakasha kwamazwe ngamazwe. Lokho okungenzeka ekuqaleni kwakunophawu lomkhosi noma olungokomfanekiso manje sekuhlanganiswe nemisebenzi yezentengiselwano ejulile, lapho ukusebenza komnotho kanye nokukhiqizwa kokuqukethwe okusabalele kuqala.
Kulesi simo, icala likaChanchal lihunyushwa ngokuthi uphawu lwemodeli ekhatheleIkomidi loMnyango Wezemvelo waseNdiya lincome eminyakeni yamuva nje ukuthi ukuhoxiswa kancane kancane kokugibela izindlovu, ekhuluma ngokuguga kwezinhlobo eziningi kanye nokwehla kwesithakazelo sezivakashi kulezi zinto, ezibhekwa ngokusolisayo yizivakashi ezizwela kakhulu.
Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ezingeni lamazwe ngamazwe, izinhlangano zokuhamba ezingaphezu kwekhulu kanye nezinkundla eziku-inthanethi—kufaka phakathi i-Tripadvisor—zikhethe ukwenza kanjalo khipha ukuthengiswa kwamathikithi noma amaphakheji afaka phakathi ukugibela izindlovuLe mikhuba ichazwe njengeyingozi futhi engenabuntu. Lo mkhuba ukhomba ekuvakasheni okunesibopho, lapho ukuxhumana nezilwane zasendle kwenzeka khona, okungcono, ezindaweni ezingcwele noma ezindaweni ezibeka phambili inhlalakahle yezilwane.
Izinhlangano ezilandele leli cala zinxusa iziphathimandla zaseRajasthan ukuthi Sindisa izindlovu ezisasebenza kule misebenzi futhi sibadlulisele ezindaweni ezingcwele ezikhethekile, lapho bangathola khona ukuvuselelwa ngokomzimba nangokwengqondo kwesikhathi eside, kude nomsindo wezivakashi kanye nezidingo zemboni yezokuzijabulisa.
Konke okwenzeka eduze Ukufa kwendlovu kupendwe ngombala opinki ngemuva kokuthwebula izithombe Kuye kwasiza ekugxiliseni iqiniso ebelilokhu ligxekwa buthule iminyaka eminingi. Ngale kwempikiswano ethile yokuthi ngabe upende wemvelo wabangela yini ukufa kukaChanchal, leli cala livule umbono ongakhululekile ngezinga okwamukelekayo ngalo ukuqhubeka nokusebenzisa izilwane ezindala nezasendle njengendawo yokubuka, kokubili eNdiya nakwezinye izindawo ezidumile zezivakashi zaseYurophu, futhi kuye kwaba yisikhumbuzo sokuthi umugqa phakathi kokuhlonishwa kwezilwane zasendle kanye nokuxhashazwa kwazo ungawela kalula kakhulu lapho umgomo oyinhloko kuyizithombe namavidiyo asakazwa kabanzi.
