Udhagamandalam: After eight days, MDT-23, a tiger that was difficult to understand, was arrested in one of the camera traps located near the Ombetta area, several kilometers from the range of Masinagudi forests.
Tiger has crossed the buffer zone from the Mudumalai Tiger Reserve (MTR).
When the big cat emerged from the bushes on Tuesday afternoon, forest officials fired an arrow into it.
However, the tiger escaped from the arrow and disappeared into the bushes, according to Shekar Kumar Niraj, head of the main conservator forest and head of wildlife.
Because there was no view of the tiger since the last eight days, the alleged forest officials might have died.
On Tuesday, the operations team reduced their strength by 30 personnel, including three veterinarians with calm weapons, which monitored tigers that were difficult to understand near the Ombetta area.
The operation to catch the tiger ended at 6:30 a.m.
on Tuesday.
This will continue on Wednesday.
