#HeadlineTherapy Bangladesh says two stolen lemurs have been taken to billionaire’s private zoo in India

Thanks to Alisha Rahaman Sakar and the Independent Online for the Headline

This is very much a David versus Goliath story involving rare wildlife  originally from Madagascar ending up in Bangladesh eventually being  rescued from the Wildlife Trade  and placed in a Bangladeshi Safari Park.

Then in 2025  with the help of a security guard,the lemurs were  again stolen and transported and traded in India,finally ending up in the Private Zoo Collection of Mukesh Ambani one of Asia’s richest  men and a close friend of The Indian Prime Minister Modi.

The zoo called Vantara is a philanthropic project by the Ambani family,but the fact  remains that the animals who were featured on the zoo’s social media are likely to be the stolen Lemurs.

Bangladesh has asked Interpol to get involved and have said that they can identify the animals by their D.N.A.

Ventura zoo has come under scrutiny from organisations concerned with animal trafficking in both Europe and further afield, however the Zoo has  firmly denied  any such involvement.

Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
