Tiger found dead in suspected poaching, third since 2022 in Chhattisgarh

New Indian Express  

RAIPUR: The death of a male tiger under mysterious circumstances at Baikunthpur forest adjoining the Guru Ghasidas National Park, about 350 km north of Raipur, has bewildered the Chhattisgarh State Forest Department. This is the third tiger death in the state since 2022 and the second suspected poaching reported this year after a tiger was killed in January in the same area. Chhattisgarh has witnessed a depressing record in the ‘Save the Tiger’ mission with the big cat population in the state going down by around 59 per cent from 46 in 2014 to 19 according to the 2019 tiger census report. A team of doctors conducted a post-mortem of the tiger, which was found dead by locals near the bank of river Khankopar close to Devshil Katwar forest village in north Chhattisgarh.
