Stray dog filmed carrying dead human foetus through streets of Pakistan

Islamabad: A shocking video footage showing a stray dog carrying a dead human baby in its mouth and roaming through the streets in Pakistan has surfaced online.

The video, allegedly filmed in Pakistan, shows the dog running between passing cars and motorbikes as it holds the dead foetus tightly in its mouth.

The incident was captured on camera by an unidentified passer-by and uploaded on social media.

Eyewitnesses to the incident said hat they tried to rescue the newborn from the dog's mouth, but were unable to do so.

After sometime, the dog can be seen dropping off the foetus in a secluded spot near the bushes and running away.

Earlier, in a similar case in Oman, a dog was seen carrying a newborn in its mouth, before it dropped it and ran away. The newborn, who survived the attack, had its umbilical cord still attached to it.
