Buxa Tiger Reserve Implements Sirens and Megaphones to Manage Crowds
Imagine you see a tiger in your town!
Lots of people would want to see it and take pictures.
The Buxa Tiger Reserve wants to keep both people and animals safe.
They are using loud sirens and megaphones.
If a wild animal is spotted, a siren will go off telling everyone to stay inside.
Megaphones will tell people about safety rules.
This will help the forest team rescue the animals and prevent any accidents from crowded areas.
Buxa Tiger Reserve (BTR) is introducing sirens and megaphones.
The initiative aims to alert people about animals and prevent crowding.
Sirens will disperse crowds when animals are sighted.
Megaphones will be used to inform people about safety in markets.
The goal is to reduce human-animal conflicts and aid animal rescue.
