Lakhimpur Kheri, Nov. 11 -- Even over 48 hours after the gruesome killing of a 10-year boy in a leopard attack at Jamunabad seed farm, under the Gola range of south Kheri forest division, the monitoring teams of the forest department have failed to track the errant leopard. Divisional forest officer (DFO), south Kheri, Tapas Mihir, told Hindustan Times that "three teams of forest officials have been deputed to track the movements of the leopard in the area." He added "mobile numbers of all team heads as well as his own number have been shared with the villagers with a request to inform them in case they detect the movement of the leopard." He further said "cages and cameras have been set up to track and cage the leopard." On Sunday night, when the Jamunabad seed-farm residents were busy in Diwali festivities, a leopard targeted a 10-year-old boy, Rohit Kumar, while he was reportedly bursting crackers outside his house. The leopard attacked the boy and dragged him away towards nearby dense shrubs. Local residents chased the leopard, however, despite a hectic search operation, the errant leopard and the boy could not be traced. On Monday morning, the forest teams alongwith Gola kotwali police recovered the partially eaten body of the boy from nearby shrubs. DFO Tapas Mihir, who visited the area and inspected the scene, confirmed an attack by a leopard and urged the villagers to remain vigilant and inform forest officials in case they encountered any wild animal. htc...
