A tigress was found dead on its territory at the Ranthambore tiger reserve on Monday.
Locals said the tigress called T-37 was seen in the morning by visitors but was found dead around 2.30 pm. Forest officials are clueless about what caused her death. The tigress’ body was first spotted by a guide.
“The doctor was called to examine the body and was not sure about what led to the death,” said a local journalist.
He said eye-witnesses had seen the tigress coughing during the day. “The doctor said it could be kidney or liver failure.” The doctor also didn’t rule out the possibility of the tigress being pregnant and some complication in pregnancy causing the death. “Postmortem will be conducted on Tuesday morning,” said an official.
