Genetic edge: Tiger on way back from 4 states

The tiger left last year and is now returning to Uttarakhand after covering hundreds of kilometres from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Himachal Pradesh.

Dr Saket Badola, Director of Rajaji Tiger Reserve, told this daily, "This tiger, which migrated from Uttarakhand, is on a long-distance migration, evidenced by the photographs captured in the trap camera in the forest of Renuka in Himachal."

"The tiger may return to the Rajaji area once the water level of the Yamuna recedes," Rajaji Tiger Reserve Director Dr Badola said, adding that "long-distance migration and safe return of the tiger through four states shows its genetic superiority".

"The Himachal Forest Department is constantly monitoring the movement of the tiger, he is completely healthy", Dr Badola added.
