Jaipur, May 13 (PTI) A tigress was found dead at the Ranthambore Tiger Reserve in Rajasthan’s Sawai Madhopur district on Friday, an official said.

The carcass of T-61, aged around 11 years, was found in Zone 7 of the tiger reserve, following which it was taken to the Rajbagh forest chowki.

Ranthambore Field Director Seduram Yadav said prima facie the death occurred after falling from a height but the exact cause of it will be known only after the post-mortem report arrives.

Forest officials said T-61 was the daughter of T-8 (Ladli) and T-34 (Kumbha) and had made Zone 7 and 8 of the tiger reserve as its territory and was seen with T-58.

The animal’s last rites were performed after a post-mortem was conducted by veterinarians in presence of forest and administrative officials, Yadav said. PTI AG RDK RDK
