Two-Year-Old Killed in Suspected Wolf Attack in Bahraich
A little boy named Ayush was sleeping with his mom when an animal grabbed him and ran away.
His mom woke up and chased after the animal, but it disappeared.
Sadly, they found the boy's body later, and it looked like the animal had eaten part of him.
People think it might have been a wolf, as wolves have hurt people in the same area before.
The government is looking into what happened.
A two-year-old boy was killed in Bahraich in an animal attack.
The child was snatched from his mother's arms while sleeping on a cot.
The boy's body was later found in a sugarcane field, partially eaten.
