Wildlife attacks kill 11 in Bardiya in under a year
Deaths from leopard, tiger and elephant attacks have nearly doubled from last year, with officials linking the rise in leopard encounters to growing tiger populations in protected forests.
Bardiya has experienced a significant increase in wildlife-related fatalities, with 11 people losing their lives to attacks by leopards, tigers, and elephants in less than a year. This marks a near doubling of such incidents compared to the previous year. Authorities attribute the surge in leopard encounters, in particular, to the expanding tiger populations within the region's protected forest areas.
This situation highlights a growing human-wildlife conflict that poses a serious threat to local communities and necessitates effective conservation and conflict mitigation strategies.
