forest officials suspect poisoning by villagers as the cause. The incident comes a couple of days after tiger cubs were found abandoned in Tadoba nAtional park indicating their mother had been killed by poachers.
With tigers deaths being reported from across the country on a regular basis and long term solutions slow to take root time is running out for the big beast.
The govt needs to involve local population in conservation and make them stake holders in protecting wildlife and forests, unless that is accomlished quickly any other efforts to preserve tigers will not prevent their extinction.
Poachers kill tiger, jumbo
