In Kanha Tiger Reserve, two tigers were tranquillised for testing related to Canine Distemper Virus (CDV) and other diseases; one showed an old injury while the other tested negative and was healthy. Following a previous CDV outbreak that killed a tigress and her cubs, officials have vaccinated over 500 dogs in nearby villages to prevent disease spread, with plans to vaccinate remaining dogs and start sterilisation to control the dog population.
