Tiger Wanders into Siddipet District

A tiger that started its journey from the forests of Maharashtra has been spotted in Siddipet district, Telangana.

This is the first time a tiger has been seen in this district, making it the 14th district in Telangana where tigers have been spotted in the past five years.

The tiger, which is a male, has been traveling through several districts, including KB Asifabad, Mancherial, and Kamareddy.

Forest officials are monitoring its movements and have set up night patrols and camera traps to keep track of the big cat.

The tiger was first seen by a farmer early on Friday near Thoguta village, close to the Mallanasagar reservoir.

There isn't much forest area near Thoguta, except for a small reserve forest of about 150 hectares.
