Understanding Wolf Attacks in UP: Why Are Wolves Still a Threat Despite Advanced Technology?

News 18  

In Uttar Pradesh’s Bahraich, a series of wolf attacks have resulted in the deaths of 9 individuals, including 8 children, and injured at least 25 more. Despite efforts from the forest department, which has successfully captured four wolves, two particularly aggressive animals remain at large. Authorities are utilising drones and night vision cameras in the ongoing search, and the Uttar Pradesh government has warned that if these wolves are not apprehended soon, lethal measures may be employed. Singh emphasises that wolves are not inherently aggressive toward humans and typically only pose a threat when circumstances drive them to act out. Siddharth Singh explains that wolves may resort to attacking humans when they are injured or otherwise struggling due to conflicts with humans or other factors.
