Tiger Sighted Near Adilabad Village, Forest Officials Initiate Tracking
A big tiger was seen near a village in India called Sathmori early on Wednesday morning.
It was close to the farms where people grow food, which made the villagers scared.
A farmer found the tiger near his field and saw that it had eaten his baby cow.
He told the forest people right away.
Now, the forest rangers and helpers are watching where the tiger goes, using special cameras to follow it.
They think it might be heading towards a forest called Pembe.
The forest people are also telling the villagers how to stay safe.
They believe the tiger came from another area a couple of days ago, crossing a big road.
