BHUBANESWAR: In a major boost to big cat conservation in Similipal, forest officials have recorded breeding of the striped predator in the North division of the tiger reserve for the first time after decades. PCCF Wildlife and Chief Wildlife Warden Susanta Nanda said T24, a female tiger, was camera trapped rearing two melanistic cubs recently. Sharing more details, STR field director Prakash Chand Gogineni said the tiger breeding has taken place in Similipal North division after over two to three decades. According to forest officials, the movement of tigers in Similipal North, that has a share of around 25 per cent in STR’s total core area, has increased only in the last two years.
