Bear menace in Kalikot
Post Report
KALIKOT, Nov 12 - Four people of Gela and Odanak VDCs in
Kalikot district were attacked in different locations and wounded seriously by three bears
on Friday, villagers said.
The bears appeared in the fields of ward No 9 of Gela VDC
and attacked a woman named Baudalya of the same ward while she was returning after
grinding foodgrain in the mill.
When villagers came to know about the incident they rescued
her from the grip of the bears.
As the bears were shooed away by the mob, they found
another victim, Mipari Shahi, of the same VDC, cutting grass and badly wounded. Later on,
the same bears wounded also two youths at ward No 1 of Odanak VDC, a resident of Odanak
VDC Janak Singh said.
Two of the wounded are undergoing treatment at the local
health centre while Maipura Shahi has been taken to a medical hall in the district
headquarters for treatment. However, it has not been possible to provide medication to
Baudalya because she is very poor. She is in a critical condition, Ratna Bahadur Shahi of
Gela VDC-9 said.
