After tigress, cubs & monkeys, 20 peacocks die in K’taka: Report
In a bizarre and disturbing sequence of events, Karnataka’s Hanumanthapura village has witnessed a series of animal deaths, leaving wildlife enthusiasts and officials alike scratching their heads. Just days after the unnatural death of a tigress and her four cubs in Male Mahadeshwara Hills, a staggering 20 peacocks have been found dead on a farmland in the same region.
According to reports, the peacocks were discovered dead on a farmland in Hanumanthapura village, a rural area in the Mysuru district of Karnataka. The shocking discovery has sent alarm bells ringing, as officials are struggling to determine the cause of death. The carcasses of the peacocks have been sent for examination to a laboratory to identify the reason behind the mass mortality.
This latest incident is the third in a series of mysterious animal deaths in Karnataka in recent weeks. Earlier this month, a tigress and her four cubs were found dead in Male Mahadeshwara Hills, sparking widespread concern and an investigation into the unnatural death. Subsequently, a group of monkeys was also reported dead in the same region, leaving many to wonder if there is a link between the incidents.
The Karnataka forest minister, Eshwar Khandre, has ordered an investigation into the “unnatural death” of the tigress and her cubs, and it appears that the investigation may have uncovered a larger pattern of animal mortality in the region. The fact that the peacocks have also died under similar circumstances has raised further questions about the cause of the deaths.
Wildlife experts are working tirelessly to determine the cause of the deaths, but so far, no clear explanation has emerged. Theories about poisoning, disease, and even human intervention have been floated, but nothing has been confirmed. The lack of clear evidence has made it challenging for officials to take concrete action to prevent further animal deaths.
The deaths of the tigress, her cubs, and the peacocks have sent shockwaves through the local community, with many residents expressing concern about the impact on the region’s ecosystem. The tigress was a symbol of the region’s biodiversity, and her death has been mourned by many. The loss of the peacocks, which are an important part of the local ecosystem, has also been deeply felt.
As the investigation continues, officials are working to determine if there is a connection between the animal deaths and any human activities in the region. The Karnataka forest department has been working closely with local residents to gather information and evidence, and a thorough examination of the area where the peacocks were found dead is underway.
The recent spate of animal deaths in Karnataka has highlighted the need for greater protection and conservation efforts in the region. The state government has been criticized for its lack of action on environmental issues, and the recent incidents have only added fuel to the fire.
In conclusion, the deaths of the tigress, her cubs, and the peacocks in Karnataka are a stark reminder of the importance of preserving our natural environment. As we continue to investigate the cause of these deaths, it is essential that we take concrete steps to prevent further animal mortality and protect the region’s biodiversity.
