Special Investigation Team Probes Sudden Death of Tigress in Dudhwa Reserve
A three-member special investigation team has been formed to probe the sudden death of a tigress in Uttar Pradesh's Dudhwa Tiger Reserve buffer zone. The tigress, suspected of killing two people in mid-June, was tranquillised and declared fit for release but collapsed and died hours later. Preliminary findings suggest hemorrhagic gastritis and parasitic infestation. The National Tiger Conservation Authority has requested a detailed report and will review compliance with standard procedures before recommending corrective actions if needed.
