NEW DELHI: Authorities in Jammu and Kashmir ’s Doda district have launched an intensified search operation after three bears were spotted roaming in the Koti area, where a resident sustained injuries in a bear attack .
The man, whose injuries are reported to be non-life-threatening, was transported to GMC Doda hospital for treatment. The wildlife department has reinforced its team with additional officials to capture the animals and ensure public safety.
Meanwhile, in Bahraich district of Uttar Pradesh, villagers in Tamachpur killed the last remaining wolf from a six-member pack that terrorized the Mahsi region for months. This wolf pack had caused widespread panic, with attacks resulting in nine fatalities and injuries to over 40 people across 25-30 villages. “Operation Bhediya,” launched by the Forest Department to capture the wolves, had seen success with five wolves caught earlier. However, the last wolf evaded capture, prompting the installation of snap cameras in suspected wolf habitats.
Bahraich district forest officer Ajit Singh confirmed that the dead wolf bore signs of injuries consistent with a struggle, and the department has initiated an investigation into the circumstances of its death.
