Uri, (Kashmir) June 14: After two incidents in last few days involving killing of two children by unknown wild animals, a 12-year-old girl has now fallen prey to a predator at Batangi Boniyar of Uri in Baramulla district.

Reports reaching GNS said that a girl identified as Rutba Manzoor, daughter of Manzoor Ahmad Bhat, was pounced upon by a wild animal and taken away to nearby forests this morning. Alerted by the cries, the family and locals tried to chase the animal, possibly a leopard, however, the beast disappeared in the dense forests with the child.

Notably, two minor boys fell prey to wild animal (s) in two incidents in last few days at Cholan Kalsi Ghati and Trikanjan Boniyar areas respectively.

Some locals told Ziraat Times that a  wave of terror and anxiety has gripped the area’s children and elders, who are grappling with questions what has suddenly prompted this situation.

Locals are demanding a proactive action by Wildlife Department to try to catch the wild animals targeting human beings. Some elders have appealed households not to let their children venture out in the dark and accompany their children at all times during commuting and while in their fields.
