To catch the wolf, the goat was used as bait… this is how the traps are being laid

In Bahraich, people are afraid of wolf attacks and are hesitant to step out of their homes alone. The forest department is trying to catch the wolves by any means and drive them away from the populated areas. For this, cages have been placed at some places in the villages. The new thing in this is that goats are being tied in cages and used as fodder for the wolves.

The forest department believes that seeing the goat tied in the cage, wolves will come to hunt and will get trapped inside. This is the reason why goats are now being tied in cages. Apart from this, traps have also been laid at various places to catch the wolves. The forest department and local villagers are working day and night to catch the wolves and drive them away from the area by any means.

People sitting on scaffoldings are keeping an eye on the wolves
To save themselves from the wolves, people are protecting themselves by keeping sticks and lathis outside their houses. People have also set up platforms at various places to keep an eye on the wolves. Day and night, the villagers are sitting on the platforms and keeping an eye on the wolves. According to the villagers, on Sunday morning, the forest department officer tried to catch the wolf, but it escaped.

People are coming out of their houses with sticks
Due to the attacks of wolves one after another, whether it is day or night, people are so scared that they are going out of their houses with sticks or rods in their hands. People going to their fields and gardens are going out in groups of two or three. Especially the people working in the fields have to be extra cautious.
