Another tiger trapped in a similar snare was rescued by forest department officials.

The area was known to be home to a pair of tigers. A team of forest officials, which had gone into the forest for installing cameras, came upon the carcass of the tiger under Gondmohadi beat of Palasgaon range last evening, and found another wild cat caught in a similar trap.
