Man-eating leopard makes 3rd kill near Sunabeda forest

A 45-year-old woman was found dead with missing body parts in Nuapada district, Odisha, confirming a leopard attack. It is the third incident of this man-eating leopard killing villagers near the Sunabeda wildlife sanctuary. The forest department has warned villagers to avoid going out in the evening and has sought help from a neighboring district to tranquilize the leopard. The department has also announced compensation for the victim’s family. In March, a similar incident occurred where a leopard killed a 70-year-old woman in a village on the sanctuary’s fringes.
