Strayed Tigress of Ranthambhore to be relocated to Sariska

Wildlife Institute of India with department of state forest would be soon relocating strayed tigress from Sariska Tiger Reserve that had strayed into Sultanpur region of Kota from Ranthambhore National Park. A team of the experts from Wildlife Institute of India and department of state forest are camping in the Kota to the trace tigress.

This tigress has been living in the Sultanpur, Kota for long time and since tigress hasn’t made effort to the return to the Ranthambhore National Park. Tigress will try to do so in the future time.  We think that it would be superior to relocate tigress to the Sariska tiger reserve as she will be safer there. Moreover, tigress is at an age where she can become mother and that might now give Sariska wildlife sanctuary its long awaited cubs, said by officers.    

V C Choubey, directory of wild-life warden said one team of the experts from Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve also has reached and camping at Sultanpur in Kota.
“We are looking tigress in the area of forest of Kota and Baran districts. After the tracing her, team will tranquilize the tigress and fetch her to the Sariska Wildlife Sanctuary by the road”, officer said. 

The expert’s team of the WII on the Sunday searched tigress in the Nagada forest region close to Anta in the district of Baran. “Pug marks of tigress were traced, but unlucky she could not found. The region of tigress is continuously under the watch” Said by R S Shekhawat, director of the field, Sariska wildlife sanctuary. He could not say how long would take time to the tigress trace but said that tigress would be the released in the Sariska tiger reserve as soon as tigress was captured. 

Officer of the Sariska tiger reserve said it is good way for increase the tiger’s population in the Sariska tiger reserve because in this reserve numbers of the tigers have five to the long time, despite all efforts.

However, poaching of leopard recently in the Sariska wildlife sanctuary has increased several questions over safety of the tigers here. On the Thursday, dead body of an eight year old was founded. Its neck and foots were entangled in snare by the poachers, said by officials. “How can say that tiger would be safe in the Sariska sanctuary when we found proof of existence of the poachers there” wondered a wildlife activist.
