SIT formed to probe Dudhwa tigress' 'sudden' death; NTCA seeks report

A special investigation team is probing the mysterious death of a tigress in Uttar Pradesh's Dudhwa Tiger Reserve buffer zone. The big cat, suspected of killing two people, was captured and declared fit for release, but suddenly collapsed and died. The National Tiger Conservation Authority has demanded a detailed report, while preliminary findings suggest hemorrhagic gastritis and parasitic infestation, possibly exacerbated by summer stress and capture strain.
