Anderson arrived at Sakrepatna where he was told that the bear had taken to visiting some fields bordered by [[Ziziphus mauritiana|boram trees]] a mile from the village. Anderson arrived at the site at 5:00 pm and spent the night at the foot of the largest tree, hoping that the bear would come. At roughly 11:00 pm, Anderson heard the bear digging for roots in the distance, and an hour later, it approached the boram tree. Anderson shone his torch at the bear, which reared up on its hind legs in alarm. Anderson then shot it in the chest.{{cn|date=January 2021}} | ||
