INDORE: A day after a pregnant woman was mauled by a man-eater leopard at Chhoti Jwari village in Alirajpur district, wildlife rescue team and battery of forest officials have launched a massive hunt to trace the beast.

DFO Alirajpur RS Sikarwar said, "Nearly six teams have been sent to different directions to trap the leopard. The rescue operation is being carried out with two tranquilizer guns and other equipment to catch the beast. Local villagers are also helping us but so far we are unable to trace it. Search operation is expected to intensify from Friday morning."

Meanwhile, throughout the day rumours about killing by leopard kept forest officials on their toes.

"Today no one was killed by leopard and people are spreading rumours," said Sikarwar.

On Wednesday, Kanta Bai who had gone out to relieve was attacked by a man-eater leopard. She died just nine days before she was expected to deliver her second child.

A man-eater leopard is on prowl in the area and this was second death due to its attack in a week. On September 3, a 12-year-old boy was killed along with his goat at a place located 8 km away from Chhoti Jwari village probably by the same leopard. In last one year six people have been killed in leopard attack.

Alirajpur district has around 38 leopards as per the census of 2013. Latest census report is awaited but forest officials believe that the number of leopard might have increased in the district.
