I read this in another article.
Forest ranger Dhanurjaya Mohapatra said Mr Bhatara “died on the spot.”
He added: “The bear is being treated for its injuries.”




Bhatara’s death is Odisha’s third selfie-related fatality since December. A 50-year-old man was crushed to death by a wild elephant while trying to take a selfie with the animal in December, according to local media. Also that month, a youth was crushed to death while taking a selfie, also with an elephant, reports said.
