After spending the early hours of the night around 3 p.m. he has returned back to Raika Hills. Few villagers who went to collect wood in the forests from Nekra village had seen the tiger passing from close range.
Purabi Mahato DFO said that the forest department trap camera spotted the tiger at 3.25 a.m. The forest department is again erecting nets around the surrounding Rahamdah village in Bandwan and locals are alerted.
The plan is to push back the tiger towards the cages and baits with hula parties walking from the front side.
S Kulandaivel, chief conservator of forests, Central Circle in Durgapur said that the forest department is taking all possible steps to capture the wild tiger safely. On 29 December, Zeenat was captured after tranquiliser guns were fired at her. She has been sent back to Simlipal Tiger Reserve in Odisha.
Purulia Forest division suspects that this male tiger is also from Odisha and has reached here to trace Zeenat. He has also reached Bandwan following the same route of tigress Zeenat.
