Bahraich: A search operation is underway in Bahraich to hunt the remaining two 'killer' wolves. So far 4 wolves have been caught. Drone visuals taken on Saturday morning at Harbaksh Purwa village showed a vast stretch of agricultural land under surveillance.
Search operation intensified
On Saturday morning, 2-3 kilometres away from Harbaksh Purwa, forest officials conducted a search operation to capture the wolf as it was located here on Friday night with the help of thermal drones.
The search for the "man-eater" wolves in Bahraich has been intensified, with the entire area being divided into four sectors and continuous monitoring operations underway.
Search in four sectors
The affected area of 30-35 kilometres has been divided into four sectors, with 165 forest personnel, including senior officers, deployed to conduct the search operation.
The Forest Department, Police Department, and District Administration have established coordination to conduct night patrols in affected areas, resulting in no incidents at night.
General Manager of the Forest Department, Sanjay Pathak, said that after the casualties have been reported, forest officials and other officials have been on alert.

"The forest officials and other officials have been on alert after the casualties were reported. Drones are being used to catch the wolves.
Four wolves already caught
Four wolves have been caught so far, and cameras have been installed everywhere to track the wolves," said Pathak.
However, Pathak noted that it has been challenging to track the wolves, with 90 per cent of the information received from the public being false.
"We received information from the people regarding the wolves, but 90 percent of it is fake.
I want to appeal to the people to only give us the information when they actually see a wolf, or else the search teams will be exhausted, and the time when the wolf actually comes, we will not be able to do anything," he added.
Meanwhile, Renu Singh, Chief Conservator Forest Central Zone, said that all resources for wolf rescue are being monitored, and instructions have been given to minimise response time in case of wolf sightings.
