Jaipur: A team of forest department shot dead a female panther in Udaipur district on suspicion that the wild animal was involved in killing three people over the past 22 days. The residents of Tidi village had been demonstrating since a girl was mauled to death by a panther two days ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the villagers said that it was the right decision to\nkill the panther, the wild life activists cried foul saying that the animal was\nshot dead after being tranquilized.
