Officials of the Forest Department said that a male tiger, aged between 6 and 8, was moving into the forest of Mamada after crossing the national highway. They stated that it killed cattle in the forests of Burkaregadi village in the Tandra-Mamada ranges. They predicted that it might either stray into the forests of Neradigonda or Khanapur range in a day or two.
The officials further said that 16 CCTV camera traps were installed and animal trackers were deployed to track the movement of the tiger. They noted that awareness was being created among rural folks over the movement of the tiger. They urged the dwellers of forest fringe villages not to set electrified fences meant to prevent damage to crops by wild animals.

The officials suspected that the tiger was searching for a female companion as it was mating season for the carnivores. They informed that the tiger inhabiting the forests of neighboring Maharashtra’s Kinwat initially drifted towards Boath of Adilabad district and subsequently entered the forests of Kuntala and Sarangapur.
Meanwhile, villagers of Burugupalli, Gaidpalli, and many forest fringe villages in Mamada mandal are on the edge following the movement of the tiger. They urged the forest officials to take steps to prevent human loss. Farmers are hesitating to harvest cotton produce fearing being attacked by the tiger. (Maxim News)
