A cage set up after locals reported the presence of a wild animal, suspectedly a tiger, in the Rehmankheda area near Lucknow. The pugmarks, whose pictures we’ve received, suggest they could be of a tiger but a confirmation can only be given once we get a picture via camera traps,” said Renu Singh, the chief conservator of forests, Lucknow division. Officials said they would wait for the animal to turn up over the next few days, and further decision would be taken only when the camera traps the ‘beast’ and the place is safe for both the animal and humans.
