Therefore the general public is requested to dump sacrificial animals' remains at specified places or bury them in the ground to ensure clean environment.
Remember! Protection of PAF aircraft, its pilots and yourself can be ensured by precautionary measures taken by you.
Wonder why there's no bird strike on eid ul adha uptil now because Karachi airports and many other airport in Pakistan have huge population around them of people who sacrifice animals and leave there dirty remains on the road and do nothing about it

Leaflet with photo of bird hit suffered by PAF Lockheed C-130E Hercules (aircraft serial# 14727). The leaflet was distributed to visitors of air show on air force day (Youm-e-Fiza'ya) September 7 at PAF Base Lahore some years ago.
