Tigress beaten to death in Uttar Pradesh recorded on camera
A two-minute video shot in Uttar Pradesh shows an adult tigress being beaten with sticks by people.
Lucknow: The video was shot in a protected zone of the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve, 240 km from state capital Lucknow. The mobile video shows villagers beating the tiger and commenting in the background about how this was being done because the tigress killed a villager earlier.
The tigress died of broken ribs and injuries to her body. She was cremated after a post mortem. FIRs have been registered against 31 identified villagers for the incident and four people have been arrested.
Pilibhit Tiger Reserve field director H Rajamohan said, "She had sustained fractures and injuries from sharp-edged weapons like spears on almost every part of her body. She also had broken ribs."
Pilibhit District Magistrate Vaibhav Shrivastava said, "A forest team did reach the spot but by that time, the tigress was in so much pain that even an attempt to tranquilize her would have added to her plight."
