"Mysuru: With two young lives lost to man animal conflict in a span of one month, the spotlight is back again on the burning issue that continues to prolong with no solution in sight.

Meghana a 23-year-old student died after she was attacked by a leopard at S Kebbehundi village in T Narasipur taluk in Mysuru district on the night of December 1. She was a final year BCom student at Government Degree College, T Narsipur

She was in the backyard of her house, when the leopard hiding in the bushes pounced on her. The injured Meghana was rushed to Government Hospital in T Narasipur, but in vain, as she had succumbed to the injuries in transit.

Exactly a month ago on October 31, Manjunath aged 20 years was killed in a similar incident, near Magadur Lingaiahanahundi village in the same taluk. He was a BCom student at Maharaja’s College in Mysuru. He along with his friends had gone to the temple at Mallappa Hill near the village, when the leopard attacked him. Though his friends made an attempt to scare away the leopard, it proved little help in saving Manjunath’s life."
