Since last many months spotted deers, chinkaras were being hunted by dogs in Gir forest area near Kodiya village in Una sub-district. Four such hunter-dogs were shot by Mandvi-round staff by guns yesterday. It was also unearthed that three people of Kodiya village, Kuda Duru Makrani, Kalu Hasan Sandhi and Gafar Duru Makrani had trained dogs for hunting small ungulates. They had already hunted six-seven deers of which two-three carcasses are recovered. They killed them for meat.
