Garbage delays flights

Attracted by the garbage dumped from markets in areas surrounding the airport, a jackal strayed onto the runway of the NSC Bose International Airport in Kolkata forcing the pilot of an aircraft to abort take off which delayed two incoming flights. Airport officials say garbage attracts birds and animals including jackals and wildcats causing trouble in airport operations.
