Kumram Bheem Asifabad: Another tiger from Maharashtra has strayed into the forests of the district apparently in search of territory on Tuesday.
Forest officials said the tiger was sighted by department staffers in the forests of Sirpur (T). They stated its movement was being tracked.
They, however, informed that the age and gender could not be ascertained as of now. More details could be divulged only when images of the tiger were captured on CCTV camera traps, the officials stated.
The officials urged the dwellers of forest fringe villages not to enter deep inside of the forests to graze cattle and collect firewood. They advised them to avoid sudden confrontation with the tigers.
They asked the villagers not to harm the tiger by setting up electrified fences usually meant to prevent damage of crops by wild boars and snares.
