40-year-old Padmakala Thapa of Sundarpur village, Thakurbaba municipality-7 of Bardia died due to tiger attack today. A tiger attacked Thapa and took him inside the forest while grazing goats in Bakuwa community forest.<\/p>\n
After the incident, local residents, police, army, and park team reached the spot. It is said that after the team reached, the tiger left the body and fled towards the forest.

Since last July, three people have lost their lives due to attacks by elephants, rhinos and tigers in Bardiya. According to Ajit Tumbahamfe, head of Bardia, National Nature Conservation Fund, the increasing struggle between wildlife and human activities in this area has made people’s lives panic.<\/p>\n

For the last five months, snake bites alone left 70 dead and 532 wounded from mid-July to mid-December in 2024, the Nepal Police said in a statement.<\/p>\n
Six people died and 14 were injured in elephant attacks, while rhinoceros attacks claimed four lives and injured 14 others.<\/p>\n
