The Jamboti forest range has about 10 villages, and sighting of wild animals is nothing new to them, but with the reappearance of the Tiger the villagers are fear stricken.
Children did not go the schools and elders have advised not to venture out alone.
On December 29, 2014 the Man-eater tiger was killed by the Forest department in the Jamboti forest range. A few villagers have also raised the question “Which tiger was killed?”
As per sources about 5-6 tigers are there in the Jamboti forest range, which normally do not come into human habitation and none of them have radio collar.
Forest officials have again started to locate the tiger.
