Trump 2.0 can be bad for Indians in USA but good for companies in India
The villagers in the Mahsi region of Bahraich, Uttar Pradesh, have eliminated the final member of a six-wolf pack that had plagued their community for several months. The last wolf was killed while attempting to hunt a goat in Tamachpur village, effectively putting an end to a series of attacks that resulted in the deaths of at least nine individuals and injuries to over 40 others.
Forest officials swiftly recovered the wolf's body and are currently awaiting post-mortem results to determine the specifics surrounding its death. Ajit Singh, Bahraich District Forest Officer, stated that the department had been diligently working to capture the last wolf for days. Upon discovering the deceased animal, Singh noted, "We immediately dispatched a team to investigate," confirming that the wolf had sustained significant injuries. The circumstances of its death have led to speculation that villagers or others may be responsible, prompting the department to file an FIR against unidentified individuals.
The Uttar Pradesh Forest Department had previously initiated "Operation Bhediya," aimed at apprehending the pack responsible for recent attacks across 25-30 villages in Mahsi tehsil. Of the original six wolves, four were captured and sent to a zoo, while the fifth reportedly died from a heart attack caused by stress. The last wolf, identified as a female, had ventured into a populated area when villagers surrounded and killed it. Reports indicate that this wolf had previously attempted to attack a child before shifting its focus to a goat, showcasing the dire threat it posed to local residents.
The ongoing terror from the wolf pack left a significant mark on the community, with the first fatality reported on July 17, involving a one-month-old boy in Sikandarpur village. In light of these tragic incidents, the state government has announced a compensation of Rs 5 lakh for the families of those who lost their lives. Local officials believe that habitat flooding may have forced the wolves into human settlements, leading to a decline in their natural prey and subsequently increasing the likelihood of attacks on villagers.
