Panna (MP), Oct 8 (PTI) A tigress has given birth to four cubs in Madhya Pradesh’s Panna Tiger Reserve (PTR), taking the number of big cats in the reserve to 90, an official said.
The tigress, P-141, was pregnant at the end of the previous tourist season (in July), PTR’s field director Anjana Suchita Tirkey told reporters on Monday.
