Maharashtra: One more killed in tiger attack in Chandrapur

The Sunday attack was the tenth victim of wildlife attacks in Brahmapuri division this year so far, according to Singh, who added that most of the attacks were either by tigers or leopards.

Murmadi had witnessed tiger terror last year with two villagers being killed by the big cats who were later captured.

Last week, a leopard had killed two persons, including a nine-month-old boy and a 55-year-old woman at Gadbori village in Sindewahi taluka of Chandrapur in the early hours of Friday. The Forest Department had caged one of the two leopards moving in the area but the other leopard, the male, continues to elude the dragnet.
