A tigeress had killed a padestrian at Balele. It had hunted down many number of cows and buffaloes. It had attacked on a villager injuring him. Now, the localities feel safe after capturing the just 6 years old tiger in the area. But it is not sure,if the captured tigeress is the same one,which attacked humans in the region.
Forest officers Poovaiah,Chakrapani and the planter Bollera Chengappa had participated in the capture.
Sadly the tigeress has died,while in mysore zoo.
Maybe because of improper medical care or overdose of sedation. Our forest dept and zoo officials should have handled the situation better,but they couldn’t. What a sad story.
