The Hindu
Eight domestic animals killed in 12 days
Panic gripped residents of Kurukkanmoola, near Mananthavady, under the North Wayanad Forest Division after eight domestic animals were killed by what is believed to be a tiger on the prowl, in 12 days.
The villagers under the aegis of an all-party action council took out a protest march and staged a dharna in front of the North Wayanad Divisional Forest Office at Mananthavady on Thursday along with the carcass of the calf, which was reportedly killed by the tiger.
The killing of cattle owned by Johny of Ayyamatathil, a farmer at Kurukkanmoola, a village on the fringes of the Thrissilery section of the forest under the Begur forest range in North Wayanad Forest Division, on the day provoked the mob.
