The reason behind their death is excessive heat.<\/p>\n<p>The searing heat seems to have started troubling the wild creatures. May 30, a shocking event came into news when the villages of Khategaon Tehsil discovered the carcasses of 8 deer in a field on Bhatasa road. Soon after discovering the dead antelopes, the villagers informed forest officials about the same. Amongst those, 4 were male and 4 were female antelopes. The moment when forest officials reached the spot, the carcasses were seized under their authority and were sent for the autopsy. The autopsy was carried out by the veterinary surgeon Mahesh Suryavanshi, who attributed heat stroke as the cause of death of the 8 deer. Lack of water is also being considered as one reason for the death of those wild creatures. Moreover, the funeral of the antelopes was performed by forest officials in the Sannod Nursery area.<\/p>\n<h3>Other Similar Incidents<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanha-national-park.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Autopsy-of-Deers.jpg\" alt=\"Autopsy of Deers\" width=\"755\" height=\"366\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kanha-national-park.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Autopsy-of-Deers.jpg 755w, https:\/\/www.kanha-national-park.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Autopsy-of-Deers-300x145.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kanha-national-park.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Autopsy-of-Deers-624x302.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For past couple of days, the whole country is reeling under the blistering heat which has become a nuisance for everyone, especially the wild animals. As a result of this sultriness, small ponds and water sources in the forests are facing drought condition. Eventually, this has also become the reason for the death of many inhabited animals, which is a major concern for forest authorities.<\/p>\n<div class=\"Highlight\">[ Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanha-national-park.com\/blog\/steps-taken-avoid-drought-kanha\/\" target=\"_blank\">Steps Taken to Avoid Drought Condition at Kanha National Park<\/a> ]<\/div>\n<p>On May 26, another incident of animal death due to excessive heat came into the limelight where 11 peacocks lost their lives in the forest of Bhilwara\u2019s Raisinghpura, Rajasthan. Whereas, the other 2 peacocks got save who was found in unconsciousness. However, keeping the sternness of the incident into consideration, the forest authority decided to arrange sources of drinking water at different areas in order to avoid such loss in future.<\/p>\n<p>In the month of March, 2 similar incidents reported.

Some came into lights while other not, but for the fact, the numbers are considerable and are likely to increase in the near future. Animals like Tigers and Lions are not the only ones for which the general people need to be alerted. Rather, animals like Deer, Elephants, and Rabbits should be given an equal attention, irrespective of their population. These are the prey base animals, and hence, they are an integral part of food chain. Their extinction could also result in the disappearance of animals who preys on them.<\/p>\n<div class=\"Highlight\">[ Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanha-national-park.com\/blog\/dead-cub-kanha-national-park\/\" target=\"_blank\">Heartbreaking Loss of Cub for Kanha National Park<\/a> ]<\/div>\n<p>In order to avoid any such future losses, there should be a timely inspection carried out by forest officials to ascertain the water condition and availability along with tracking the wild animals.
