Harry Potters Owl or Its the Black Magic practices in India

“Harry potter’s’ now an eco offender, making Indian obsessed with keeping owl as pets”, Does that make any sense?  The remark which came from Environment Minister of India Jairam Ramesh in which he said: the films based on JK Rowling’s book on the boy wizard making the Indian middle class obsessed with keeping owl as a pet for their children leading to the decline in their population, well that’s sounds fragile and porous to me at least. Hunting of and trade in all Indian owl species is banned under the Wildlife (Protection) Act 1972 of India well known to the people selling pet at pet shop nor there is any such demand from the general middle class people as per the pet shop owners selling pets. Hunting and trading of owl is only because of its use of owls in black magic and sorcery driven by superstition, totems and taboos. It is one of the prime drivers of the covert owl trade, same as found by TRAFFIC India through investigation into the illegal trade, trapping and utilization of owls in India. Its not the children’s demand but our orthodox cultural belief which brought owls under threat, Friday 5 November 2010 Delhi Times, The Times Of India in one of its sun sign (Capricorn) says to keep an owl beside Lord Ganesha and goddesses Lakshmi which will bring wealth to the sun sign, now this surely make the statement to pet Owl and miss guide people, In the villages some tribes thinks, the owl’s meat is good for heart and hence makes it part of their diet too. It’s all about what you believe in. Save the creature or kill it for your selfish needs, sad but this is the truth.
