Over the past few months, the Bahraich region has been plagued by a series of attacks by man-eating wolves targeting the children and villagers.

The forest department now has initiated an innovative effort by using brightly coloured "teddy dolls" as a false bait to capture these predators.

These dolls have been strategically placed near the riverbanks, close to the wolves' resting places and dens, and are being soaked in children's urine to simulate the natural human scent.

If they only wanted human scent they didn't need kid's piss... ๐Ÿค”

I'm guessing there's probably a scent difference between adult vs adolescent vs child; child being perceived as easy prey probably lures them in?

Which would imply someone has done a lot of research smelling piss.
