It's the longest such walk ever recorded by a big cat in India, according to researchers
The five-month-long odyssey saw the tiger, dubbed T1-C1 by scientists, criss-cross through forests and populated urban areas before eventually settling in a nature reserve, said Ravikiran Govekar, field director with the Maharashtra State Forest Department.Male tigers migrate as a part of a natural process of marking their territory in order to find a habitat where they can assert their dominance, moving away from their place of origin, which is already densely populated with tigers.
"A tiger's behavior is unpredictable but we are keeping track of it," said Vishal Mali, a divisional forest officer at the sanctuary."The region has sufficient natural resources and prey for the tiger to sustain itself and it might decide to settle there permanently." A satellite radio collar was placed on the tiger as part of a study to monitor dispersal patterns.
