4. At present, in India, almost 4000 slaughter houses are working in which billions of rupees of meat and other meat products are produced. 

5. From the horns of animals, several decorative things are made.

Cause of weak health of animals in India: In India, the animals give less milk and meat. Following four factors are responsible for it:

1. Lack of healthy food and green fodder: Due to large population, food grains are chiefly grown in India while the farmers pay little heed to production of green fodder. Besides, there is lack of green pastures. That is why the farmers do not feed their cattle sufficient and nutritious diet. Consequently, the animals grow weak and give less milk and meat. 

2. Lack of good breed: Animals of good breed are not available in India. Although the government is opening animal reform centers, breeding centers and medical centers in villages, yet desired results are not coming. 

3. Diseases of animals: Due to the unhealthy living atmosphere, polluted water and rotten things and living in touch with sick animals, several animals become ill. During rainy season, in different parts of India, animals die in large number due to infection in mouth, feet, poisoning, fever and infection of throat.

4. Ignorance and carelessness of animal rearers: In India, most of animal rearers rear animals in traditional way and they do not have knowledge of modern methods of animals rearing, besides, they are careless towards the health of animals. Although in some parts of India, modern dairies have been established.
