There is a tourist track nearly five kilometres from Naharkhora where a tiger attacked 50-year-old Badri Kumar and his donkey on Monday. "Now what we have done is to barricade a further five kms of the track so as to ensure that tourists are atleast 10 kms away from the spot where the incident took place. We will keep this provision on for the next 10-15 days," said a forest official.
Even the small ongoing work in the area like construction of roads have been halted as a safety measure. "Instead, we have set up trap cameras in a bid to locate the big cat. Additional staffers have also been deployed in the area," said the official.
The tiger, after the kill, had eaten the donkey partially though not the man. On Monday, the officials remained busy collecting the post-mortem report and the FIR from the police. The post-mortem report confirmed that the man was killed by the tiger.
