Jaipur, May 15 -- Forest officials on Wednesday tranquilised a 20-month-old tigress who was suspected to be have killed two people in the Ranthambore Tiger Reserve, an official said, amid heightened concerns about human-animal conflict in the area. The tigress, Kankati, was tranquillised after she was spotted near Hotel Macchan in Kutalpura Maliyan village, on the periphery of RTR, the official said, adding that she will be kept in an enclosure until a decision is made on her relocation. The tigress was spotted near the hotel at around 8am, attracting a crowd of nearly 1,500 people, officials said. Concerned about another attack, forest authorities moved quickly and tranquilised her at around 9.30am. "She will be kept in an enclosure at RTR until a decision is taken by the state government," the official cited above said. For now, the tigress has been released into a two-hectare enclosure in the Talera region of RTR, the official said. Earlier, tiger T-104 was kept in the same enclosure after it killed a man. On Sunday, ranger Devendra Chaudhary was fatally attacked while on duty in the Jogi Mahal area of Ranthambore National Park. Authorities now suspect that Kankati was likely involved in the attack on a seven-year-old boy who was killed in a similar manner near the Trinetra Ganesh temple within the reserve. Since Kankati's mother Arrowhead was unable to hunt, the forest authorities started giving bait to her and her cubs near the Jogi Mahal area. This practice, the officials said, led to the cubs becoming habituated to the presence of vehicles and humans due to the repeated arrival of vehicles bringing bait. "The cubs likely lost their distance or fear of humans. It is possible that when the ranger's vehicle stopped during patrolling, the tiger - already present in the area - pounced on him," forest authorities. A senior forest official familiar with the development said a five-member committee has been constituted as per the NTCA protocol - comprising representative of NTCA, chief wildlife warden, local NGO, panchayat representative and Field Director. The move comes amid growing concerns over the tiger's behaviour, with officials working to determine whether the attacks were isolated incidents or signs of a pattern indicating the animal has become habituated to killing. Foresters believe that the practice of providing bait, as Arrowhead was unable to hunt, may have made the cubs habituated to the presence of vehicles and humans due to the repeated arrival of vehicles bringing bait. He said it is believed that due to this constant routine, the cubs likely lost their distance or fear of humans. It is possible that when the ranger's vehicle stopped during patrolling, the tiger-already present in the area-pounced on him. A forest guard who responded to the incident claimed that two cubs were seen sitting beside the ranger's body after the attack. They only retreated after busting crackers. Preliminary assessment suggested that the tiger that fatally attacked a forest ranger at Ranthambore Tiger Reserve (RTR) on Sunday has been suspected to be the same animal responsible for the death of a 7-year-old boy on April 16. The victim, Ranger Devendra Chaudhary, was attacked near the historic Jogi Mahal area while on duty. On April 16, a young boy from Lakheri village in Bundi district was killed in a similar incident near the Trinetra Ganesh Temple, also within the reserve....
