Summary:

The animal was so desperate for food that it entered the cage within an hour of us installing it," he added. The WWS is the most tiger- rich forest in the state accounting for around 76 tigers of the total of 136 big cats in the state. The owner of the cow was standing just 50 metres away when the incident happened. "The missing canine teeth could have made it difficult for the animal to hunt in the wild, forcing the animal to stray out and resort to hunting of cattle. "The animal was not fit for release to the wild as it could again stray out and kill some cattle or even attack humans," Anjan Kumar said..
