In this regard, Div Com convened a meeting which was attended by the Additional Chief Conservator of Forests, Deputy Commissioners, SSPs, Regional Wildlife Warden and Conservators of forests.

While elaborating a slew of measures to address the issue, Div Com emphasized on filtration of information regarding sighting of wild animals to curb rumors and disinformation so the wildlife teams remain focused and the resources do not get overburdened.

It was given that out of total calls received by the wildlife department regarding the presence of leopard or other animals, ninety percent calls were based on rumors.

Stressing on adopting a proactive approach, Div Com exhorted on creating a centralized helpline number for receiving the first hand information for quick response without wasting time.

He also directed the Wildlife Department for capacity building of staff and augmentation of logistics in all districts besides operation of Control Rooms at District Level.

To ensure that wildlife teams execute their assignments in a professional manner, Div Com asked SSPs to help the teams by providing police personnel when required for crowd management and safety of civilians.

He called for building close coordination between district administrations, Police, Wildlife Department, Community Leaders, Lumberdars, Chowkidars and shepherds for processing the factual information and capturing the wild animals.

Bidhuri directed concerned officers of Urban Local Bodies to keep the areas clean from litter and dispose-off waste in a proper manner so the stray dogs do not get attracted to the habitations.

It was informed that the leopards prey on stray dogs for food because of which they visit to habitations.

Meanwhile, Div Com asked people not to leave their children alone at pre-dawn and post-dusk durations and advised them to move in groups in the rural areas where wild animal sitting has been confirmed.

It was informed that the Wildlife Department is using cages to trap wild animals by luring them through baits and is installing camera traps besides conducting drone surveys to catch the wild beasts.
