DREADED TIGER T-104 TO SAY GOODBYE TO RANTHAMBORE

Sawai Madhopur: The Forest Department and the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) have finally decided the fate of the dreaded tiger T-104 of Ranthambore. The NTCA has approved the proposal sent by the Forest Department and permission has been given to shift the tiger from Ranthambore to Udaipur's Sajjangarh Biological Park.

After getting the permission, the preparations for shifting have been started by the Forest Department. The tiger will be shifted from Ranthambore to Udaipur's Sajjangarh Biological Park next week by the Forest Department.

After getting permission from NTCA, the process for shifting of T-104 has been cleared and soon after about three-and-a-half-year T-104 will be shifted from the enclosure built at Bhid Naka in Ranthambore. There was a demand to shift T-104 elsewhere. In the past, a committee was formed by the Forest Department to study the nature of T-104. The committee had also declared the tiger as a threat to humans, considering the nature of the tiger as fierce and refused to leave the tiger in the open forest.

In July, a proposal was prepared by the Chief Wildlife Warden of the Forest Department to shift T-104 to the enclosure built in Mukundara. In this regard, a letter was also written by the PCCF to the CCF of Ranthambore and the National Tiger Conservation Authority. But until now permission in this regard could not be obtained from NTCA.

Now after the death of tigress MT-4 in Kota's Mukundra Hills Tiger Reserve, the tiger will be shifted to Udaipur's Sajjangarh Biological Park instead of Kota. According to information from the Forest Department, after getting permission to shift Tiger T-104, the preparations for shifting have also been started by the Forest Department.
