Contributing our bit !
A report in DNA today cites an investgitation by a central team into tiger deaths which concluded that there was evidence of tiger deaths taking place in Panna due to tranquilising. After all the hue and cry raised by centre and state and the buck passing that has taken place over the last few months it seems we are no where near to ascretaining the real cause of tiger deaths. And unless we get a definitive fix on the reasons it is impossible to afix responsibility and take preventive steps for future preventition. Apart from other actions the MOEF shoould make it mandatory for the WWF and NTCA to investigate disappearance of every single tiger and for that to happen each animal in the country needs to be identified and tracked. Without this is going to be very tough to know how many tigers existed in a particular sanctuary and whether the numbers are headed up or down.
Did tranquillisers kill Panna tigers?
