Chandrapur: The Department of Forest Rescue Team pursues a five-year-old Tigress of the reach of Warora, which moves with a splashed wire snare in his neck for the past six months, once again failed to save him on Sunday even after darting cats.

The head of the forest conservator, NR Pravin said that it was not the first time when the tiger had escaped from rescue efforts.
“Dart failed to give a large number of drugs into the body to calm him down.
Therefore, the tiger escaped,” he said and claimed that a similar instance had occurred in the past with other tigers as well.
The source involved in the operation on Sunday claimed that the tiger was made around 6am.
It moved after the arrow hit him.
Search operations to find Tigress launched immediately, they said.
The rescue team found Tigress lying in a thick shrub a little far from the place was wrapped around.
However, at that time it could be traced, the drug effect seemed to be obsolete.
When Forester tried to approach him, the cat stood up and escaped, the source said.
NR Pravin said though efforts failed, the search operation would continue.
The source claims that the assistance of the Force Protection Tiger (STPF) specifically from Tadoba is also sought.
Even when officials claim that DARTs will go down when Tigress moves, experts claim whether special collared needles have been used on arrows, then there is little opportunity to fall alone.
“Such a needle has a fine hook that ensures that DART doesn’t fall.
Sometimes pliers are required to remove such arrows from calm animals,” experts said.
