The compartment where carcass was found lying is about 4 km away from the site where the partially eaten body of Jamuna Prasad, resident of Dilawarpur village was found lying on July 27. His body was recovered by forest officials from Ghundchai forest beat in Deoria range. This indicates that the tiger has not changed its location.
"Killing of a blue bull also shows that it is going for its natural prey," said V K Singh, DFO, Pilibhit. It is the little distance between the site of the last and the latest killing, which is making forest officials believe that it is the same tiger which has struck again.
The tiger has killed and partially eaten five men from May 3 till July 26 in Deoria range. The forest department is manning the area to keep any more human killings at bay. In the past three days, seven villagers have been detained for trespassing. Since villagers are dependent on forest for their several needs, they continue to defy forest officials and enter forest area.
Besides, eight digital cameras, which were installed at the sites where killings had taken place, have been withdrawn by the department. Pilibhit forest officials had planned to divide the range into 25 grids of 4 sq km each. The plan was also about installing a camera at every grid. However, no camera trappings, so far, have given any clue about the tiger. Therefore, the officials have decided to wait before they go ahead with the said plan.
