Mohammad Umar said that the wolf menace is continuing in the village for the past several days. “Earlier also many people have become the targets of wolf in the village. The administration is trying its level best to catch the man-eater but has not been successful in its mission,” Mohammad Umar said.
“People are afraid to venture out in the night in the village. We are assisting the local administration in taming the wild animal and cage it,” he added.
The villagers claim the wolf has been escaping the forest authorities and hope that it gets captured soon.
“Although the administration is trying its level best to put the wolf under cage, it is escaping every time. We wish it is caught as soon as possible,” Mohammad Umar said.
