A full-grown man-eater leopard who had reportedly devoured three children and wounded at least half a dozen people, was trapped alive by a wildlife enthusiast in Rana Farm area of Katarniya Ghat sanctuary in Bahraich district, about 130 km from Lucknow on early Friday morning.
In the fourth incident of its kind in Bahraich over the recent past, a 18-year old boy was mauled and killed by a tiger in a village on the periphery of Katarniya Ghat wildlife reserve, along the Uttar Pradesh-Nepal border, well-known for a fairly sizeable big cat population.
