The carcasses of the cubs that were just over two months old, were found by a patrolling party of the forest department in Mukki forest range, KTR's field director L Krishnamurthy said.
"A forest patrol party got the information in the morning about the carcasses of two cubs in Mukki range, after which the team reached the spot," he said.
The cause of their death will be known only after a forensic examination is conducted, he said.
