The partially-eaten body of 30-year-old Kamal Singh Bisht was found in the Bhimtal forests, raising suspicions of a leopard attack, according to forest officials.
Bisht, from Bhadayuni village near Kathgodam, disappeared Thursday, prompting his family's search efforts. On Friday, villagers and forest department personnel discovered his body deep in the woods.
Despite previous warnings of leopard presence, Bhimtal Block Pramukh Harish Bisht criticized the forest department for neglecting to take preventative measures. An autopsy will determine the precise cause of death and identify the predator involved. Enhanced patrolling has been initiated around the forest periphery for local security.
