Farmer Leaves Body To Animals

An Indian farmer has written his will - leaving his body to wild animals.

New World Laldingliana, 46, wants his remains to be devoured by animals after his death.

Mr Laldingliana, from Kawkulh in Mizoram, registered his will at a magistrate’s court in the state capital Aizawl.

Asian News International reports he wrote in his will: “I, New World Laldingliana, have decided to give my body to wild animals when my life on earth is over to show that I had given my life for them.

“One of my greatest wishes is to throw a feast for the wild animals in Phawngpui forest with my own body. As such, I have made my will without any coercion or motivation from anyone.”

Magistrate Lalbiakzama described the will as “unique”.
