A wild bear appears to have lost its way after straying into the outskirts of the Srinagar city. For the last few days, the animal has been roaming across areas from Kashmir University to the Sher-I-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS), while teams from the Wildlife Department teams have been trying, unsuccessfully, to capture it.
The bear was last week sighted along a road near Hazratbal before being chased by a pack of stray dogs into the girls’ hostel of Kashmir University at Naseem Bagh. The animal was seen climbing a pole and then jumping into the hostel premises as the dogs pursued it, shows a video that has since gone viral on social media.
