For 72 hours now, forest officers in Nandyal-Kurnool area of Andhra Pradesh are looking for a tigress so that they can return her four cubs to her.
The cubs, who had strayed into an agricultural field, were found by villagers. They first shifted them to a makeshift shelter to protect them from stray dogs. Once the forest department was informed, they were moved to a veterinary centre.
The villagers are now worried that the tigress, upset over losing her cubs, may turn aggressive.
The forest department has set up trap cameras and a 300-member team is looking for the tigress. They are said to have found pug marks and hope to locate the big cat soon. The tigress may be T-108, forest officers said.
