In a disturbing trend, a surge in wolf attacks has terrorized villages in the Kaiserganj and Mahsi tehsils of Bahraich district. Among the victims is a 15-month-old child, allegedly snatched from her home. Despite a massive search effort involving drones and dog squads, the child remains missing.

Authorities have traced wild animal footprints near the scene, strengthening suspicions of a wolf attack. The incidents between September and October have left six dead, including children and an elderly couple, and 29 others injured.

State officials report that a pack of four wolves was responsible, with three killed, and efforts continue to neutralize the last remaining threat. The government has responded by providing financial compensation to affected families.
