The Humane Society International (HSI-India) has announced a reward of up to Rs 50,000 after dna, on Sunday, reported how despite tireless efforts by the Resqink Association for Wildlife Welfare (RAWW), the monkey could not be saved. The NGO, working to rescue urban wildlife, had managed to pick up the monkey from Tusletpada in Bhandup on Friday, and had initiated the treatment.HSI managing director NG Jayasimha said, "It's unfathomable that an innocent, defenseless monkey was subjected to this suffering.
