Jelena Banac

Jelena Banac is a 53-year-old animal welfare advocate in Serbia who expresses deep concern over the public's lack of awareness regarding animal well-being and the scarcity of volunteers to assist abandoned animals. She criticizes the government's oppressive tactics aimed at stifling solidarity with animals like Dona, a dog that became a symbol of recent protests, asserting that violence against animals is a method of intimidation against the populace.
