Wolves Killed Eight in Uttar Pradesh Attacks

In Uttar Pradesh's Bahraich district, a series of wolf attacks has resulted in the deaths of nine people, including eight children, over the past two months, sparking widespread fear among residents. The latest attack involved a three-year-old girl and two women, intensifying calls for action against the wolves. The forest department's 'Operation Bhediya' has captured four wolves, but two remain at large, prompting villagers to use firecrackers and lights at night for protection. Local officials have faced criticism for delayed responses and inadequate safety measures, with some villagers expressing frustration over the lack of action despite previous reports of wolf sightings. Drones are being deployed to locate the remaining wolves, while officials advise residents to stay indoors and remain vigilant. The local administration is under pressure to ensure the safety of the community amid ongoing threats from the predators.
