“There are some bison in this area. We don't know where it goes and where it comes from. So it will be a little difficult for everyone in the evening.”
“ಈ ಏರಿಯಾಲ್ಲಿ ಒಂದಿಷ್ಟು ಬೈಸನ್ಗಳು ಇವೆ. ಆ ಎಲ್ಲಿ ಹೋಗುತ್ತೆ ಎಲ್ಲಿ ಬರುತ್ತೆ ಗೊತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ. ಸೊ ಸಂಜೆಗೆ ಹೋದಾಗ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಕಷ್ಟ ಆಗುತ್ತೆ ಎಲ್ಲರಿಗು”

Furthermore, unexplained sightings of potentially dangerous wildlife, including tigers and bison, are raising alarm regarding their origins and movements, creating a sense of unease, particularly in the evenings 🐾. Addressing these issues will require a multi-faceted approach, focusing on effective vegetation management and robust wildlife monitoring programs 💡 to ensure community well-being and worker safety.
“Lantana is growing extensively in the middle areas of this garden. The thorns of the lantana plant are pricking the workers and making it difficult for them to move around and work.”
“About a week ago, that tiger was spotted on the rock near this hostel. So now, nobody knows where those tigers came from.”
