People from more than a hundred families are living in fear due to the movement of two fishing cats in Ghatail, Tangail. For several days, the two fishing cats have been seen moving around the Taltola area of Lokhindor union in the upazila.
On Friday, the two fishing cats were spotted in the bushes beside a house in Taltola village. After a video taken by locals spread on Facebook, hundreds of people gathered there. Later, after an announcement was made through the mosque loudspeaker and people assembled, the cats fled and remain uncaptured.
Upon receiving the news, the upazila forest officer visited the spot. He stated that although locals mistakenly called it a leopard, it is actually a fishing cat. Announcements were made through local mosque loudspeakers requesting people not to panic and not to kill the two fishing cats.
