Bijnor/Gorakhpur: The leopard that killed three people in Bijnor area will come to Gorakhpur zoo. SDO of the local forest department Gyan Singh has confirmed this.

They say that permission for this has been received from higher authorities. However, the Gorakhpur Zoo administration says that they have the information, but the arrival is not confirmed.

The leopard had killed a young girl, a woman in Bijnor's village Pilana and a farmer in the forest of Jalalpur Bhud. More than a dozen cages were installed in five villages to catch the leopard. On Wednesday morning, the leopard got trapped in the cage installed in the forest of Kulchana.

Right now it is kept in the range office of Bijnor. It has injured itself by hitting the cage. Due to the lower canine teeth of the leopard being broken, it is considered dangerous to leave it in the open.

Let us tell you that the forest department team rescued the man-eating wolf, which had become a synonym of terror in more than 35 villages in Bahraich, on Thursday. On the instructions of Principal Chief Forest Conservator (Wildlife) Sanjay Srivastava, the team reached Gorakhpur Zoo with the wolf. Here it has been kept in a quarantine cell. Before this, eight leopards and one tiger have also been rescued and brought here.

There has been terror of wolves in Bahraich area for the past several days. Many villagers were injured due to their attack. The forest department team has rescued four wolves so far. One of them died. Whereas, two wolves were sent to Lucknow Zoo.
