A deer strayed into
Bhubaneswari village in Kultali on the Fringes of Sundarban forest early on
Saturday morning, scaring villagers who initially mistook it for a man-eater.
In the
morning from the distance a villager saw a yellow spotted animal in the dense
bamboo forest. Just after watching that, he ran for his life assuming it as a
man eater tiger. When the news spread, the villagers came with sticks and other
weapons.
The deer
get frightened when it saw the villagers and fell into a local pond. Villagers
informed the chitori forest beat office. A forest team immediately reached the village
to rescue it.
According to the Divisional forest officer Lipika Roy, “The deer was tired
after fleeing a tiger and then running about when frightened by the villagers.
It is not injured though.”
