Smiling influencer filmed kicking dog apologizes for sharing ‘cruel act’

This influencer’s in the doghouse with her followers.

Kajal Kiran, whose Instagram following exceeds 121,000 users, has issued an apology to fans and animal lovers everywhere after being forced to admit she’d kicked a dog — and filmed it.

India Today reported on Wednesday that the since-deleted reel depicted Kiran with a smile, laughing as she abused the animal. The footage has reportedly been reposted on social media, sparking recent backlash.

“How can you be so insensitive towards these voiceless souls,” tweeted Vidit Sharma, founder of Save a Stray, an India-based animal welfare organization.

Kiran uploaded a video on Wednesday to express her remorse for sharing the “cruel act,” which occurred in the “heat of the moment,” she said.

“I regret my actions and didn’t realize the gravity at that point of time. I vow to not harm any animals,” she concluded.

Wednesday’s apology video on Instagram has since had its comments section shut off.

Her apology message reportedly received over 25,000 comments, which have since been made hidden, including some who threatened to flag her account with Instagram.

On Wednesday, she shared two more posts that appear to depict her feeding stray dogs.

According to Insider, the account also features additional videos of Kiran feeding dogs in an attempt to rehabilitate her image.

Another animal advocate responded to Save A Stray’s Sharma with images of a Mumbai high court complaint over Kiran’s alleged abuse. “Everyone are requested to kindly tag @MumbaiPolice to escalate the same,” they added.

India Express reported that their government protects dogs under the Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals Act.

Drunk man gets strangled by python in wild video

He almost shed his mortal coil.

An Indian man is lucky to be alive after getting ssssstrangled by a massive python that he was messing with while intoxicated. Footage of his near-death experience is currently blowing up online.

The literally breath-taking incident occurred after Birjalal Ram encountered an unidentified serpent while fishing in Parihara Panchayat, in Jharkhand, Jam Press reported. Upon spying the constrictor, the angler, who was reportedly inebriated at the time, decided to pick it up and put it around his neck like a living feather boa.

That’s when his scaly new scarf decided to tighten its grip. The entangled man then screamed for help, prompting his 14-year-old son, Nitish, and his buddies to rush to the rescue.

In the accompanying clip, Ram can be seen with his neck and head fully enveloped by the ornate reptile like a sentient Gordian knot. His son and his pals attempt to yank the critter off of him, only for Ram to topple into a nearby river with the python still encircling his throat.

They try several more times to free the victim from the snake’s death grip but to no avail.

After a 20-minute tug-of-war, Nitish was finally able to free his father, who incredibly emerged from the asphyxiating ordeal with only minor injuries.

As for toying with snakes, we suspect that, in retrospect, Ram feels that the juice wasn’t worth the squeeze.

Either way, the serpent-attack survivor should thank his lucky stars — and his son — that he’s OK.

Last month, a grandmother was swallowed whole by a 22-foot-long reticulated python in Indonesia — with shocking video capturing the moment her remains were found inside the cut-open beast.

Connecticut man Raymond Neuberger arrested for beating cat to death

A Connecticut man with a history of animal abuse who twice ran for office was arrested Tuesday for allegedly pouring bleach onto a cat and beating it to death, police said.

Raymond Neuberger, of Fairfield, was charged with animal cruelty and other crimes in connection to the feline’s August death.

Neuberger — who ran unsuccessfully for state office in 2016 — is accused of severely beating a cat that later died of its injuries under veterinary care.

Fairfield police opened up an investigation into the cat’s death after the department received a report from an emergency veterinary clinic that the cat’s injuries were suspicious.

The cat had several signs of physical injury and neurological trauma and had been covered in a liquid that turned out to be bleach, police said.

Veterinarians determined the cat had died as a result of blunt force trauma after conducting a necropsy.

Investigators found Neuberger, 38, to be the prime suspect and issued a warrant for his arrest.

Further investigation revealed that he had also allegedly “engaged in violence, domestic in nature” and a second arrest warrant was completed, Fairfield police said without providing further details on that incident.

Neuberger was arrested Tuesday and charged with cruelty to animals as well as first-degree assault and disorderly conduct in connection to the domestic violence incident.

He was released from custody after posting $30,000 bonds and is due back in court Wednesday.

Neuberger, who was also reportedly a Fairfield Representative Town Meeting candidate, previously served time for abusing his fiancé’s two dogs in 2018.

He was convicted of burning one of the two 5-year-old King Charles Cavalier Spaniels and fracturing the ribs of another, according to the Connecticut Post.

The lawyer appointed to advocate for the dogs, Thor and Charlie, said in 2018 that he was concerned Neuberger would abuse animals again in a now ominous statement cited by the local outlet.

“I was insisting that he get jail time because cruelty to animals is a serious crime and I had no confidence that he wouldn’t offend again,” lawyer Kenneth Bernhard said at the time.
