The animal-man conflict took a toll in the Chandrapur district after the sub-adult male tiger (SAM-2) takes down four humans.
The tiger was captured late Tuesday evening in compartment number 118 at Saighata under the North- Brahmapuri forest range.
Brahmapuri DyCF Dipesh Malhotra confirmed it was the same tiger that used to cross the widened Nagbhid-Brahmapuri highway last month.
It was almost frequently sighted by the tress passers and had a record of four human kills since the month of June 2022.
Dipesh added, “The order to capture the problem tiger was issued by PCCF (wildlife) about 15 days ago, but the drive was intensified after the latest kill by the tiger.”
