Which word in the paragraph means 'ignored'?

Directions: Answer the given question based on the following passage.

Animal Rahat is a unique program that aims to help some of the most neglected animals in the world – the bullocks, donkeys and other working animals in India. Animal Rahat was created to make a difference in India’s working animals. These gentle animals often suffer from dehydration, untreated sores, muscle strain and sometimes they are subjected to frequent beating. Animal Rahat was founded in 2003 to provide these animals with relief. This lifesaving program now offers services throughout three districts of Maharshstra, one of the largest states in India, and in the neighbouring town of Solapur. Their staff members provide free aid to bullocks who work in sugar mills, donkeys who are used in brick kilns, horses who pull carts and other working animals. Animal Rahat aims to alleviate the sufferings of these animals by giving rest to the lame and offering relief to the sick and injured. Animal Rahat’s guidance and support of these animals has already reduced practices such as leaving out animals in extreme heat or leaving them unprotected through rainy seasons.
