CCTV footage capturing leopards venturing into residential zones in Thodupuzha, sourced from cameras installed at Karingunnam panchayat. The Forest Department plans to increase surveillance by installing additional cages to capture the tigers spotted in the area.
Concerns over the presence of tigers arose when locals objected to the construction of a cage, leading to heightened awareness. Recent sightings place the tigers approximately 7 kilometers away in Parakkadavu, near Illichari.
Forest officials have confirmed leopard sightings in Thodupuzha, Illichari, and Muttam regions. Locals claim a tiger was sighted in Illichari last month, and recent incidents involving the killing of a fox and a dog in Vadakkummuri have further escalated fears.
