Tigers’ cross 400 number(s) in Uttarakhand forests but maneater killing spree continues, 4 year old girl killed in Bageshwar

The killing spree of maneater leopards are on the rise in various parts of Uttarakhand and the news comes to one and all with faster pace as social media has become extremely active and reached into the houses leaving no scope of any news being concealed as used to be done earlier when there was no such avenue of digital reach. Extremely shocking and anguishing news have poured in about yet another brutal predator attack on a minor girl of merely four year literally killing her on the spot in Bageshwar district of Kumaon, Uttarakhand thus sending shock waves across and creating an environment of extreme terror sensitising the goose bumps of the local inhabitants.

This sad news while on the one hand is a huge slap on the face of the forest department and the wild life of Uttarakhand it also questions the credibility of the ruling saffron political dispensation under whose rule the innocents are being brutally killed by predators but there’s literally no corrective measures have been expedited by the authorities concerned. Uttarakhand has presently been the victim of increasing fatal accidents, natural disasters like deluges n landslides, predator killings and deaths through excessive sub standard liquor consumptions. In a past decade hundreds of innocent children, old aged and women had become the victim of these maneater leopards who’ve now become so prone to human killings that there is a death on every fourth day by this dreaded human beasts.

Though we are not against the conservation of this fastly misding breed of leopards, tigers and panthers the government should arm its wild life and forest department with adequate equipments and traquiliser guns etc alongwith the adequately trained hunters who should spot the black spots of maneaters’ existence and try to vatch them after tranquilising the predators and if necessary to get rid of them after seeking necessary permission from the honourable courts. In return the villagers living on roadsides or near the jungles should also exercise adequate precaution to avoid their movements in odd hours in the isolated jungle vicinity and ensure the safety and security of their children.

Meanwhile in the recently exercised survey by the Uttarakhand wild life through recognising the foot prints of the movements of tigers in Uttarakhand forest the authorities have confirmed about the existence of more than 400 tigers in Uttarakhand jungles which was 361 in the year 2017.
