BAHRAICH: After a number of days of combing, UP forest division groups, which had fanned out within the sugarcane fields of Sisaiya village in Bahraich, managed to seize a male wolf on Thursday. Forest officers consider that it is without doubt one of the three ‘killer‘ wolves on the prowl within the district.
The groups are actually looking out for the remaining two wolves of the pack believed to be behind the killings of seven individuals – six kids and a girl – previously six weeks in Bahraich district.
Officers stated three wolves had been captured earlier after the primary casualty was reported, however when the killings did not cease, the vigil intensified previously 10 days. Whereas 25 groups of the forest division are on the job to lure the wolves, over 350 safety personnel have been deployed within the terror-stricken villages.
By Wednesday, the forest crew had details about the motion of three wolves who may very well be behind the killings. Principal chief conservator of forests (wildlife), Sanjay Srivastava, stated that the wolf which has been captured was first detected by a thermal drone on Wednesday. “It was monitored once more by way of a drone until 5 am on Thursday morning. The wolf’s footprints have been noticed, and the native forest division officers sprang into motion. They captured the wolf from the floodplain of Sisaiya village round 10.45 am. The seek for two different wolves remains to be on,” he added.
The captured wolf might be taken to Gorakhpur zoo.
Bahraich DFO Ajeet Singh stated: “Initially the male wolf was cornered from all sides by completely different groups and discovering no method as quickly because it tried to flee in direction of the river our crew first tranquilised it and trapped it within the internet.”
