Wayanad: Forest officials caught a one-and-a-half-year old female tiger cub, that had strayed into human habitations in a village in Wayanad district, on Monday.
A cage was set up in Thovarimala under the Meppadi forest range to capture the tiger following the villagers' complaint about its presence in human-inhabited areas. The animal walked into the cage on Monday morning, they said.
The tiger cub will be examined by a team of veterinary experts, and further steps will be taken as per protocol, the officials said.
