“We had requested Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra for the tigers and they have given their consent. The tigers have been selected from the core area as well,” Nanda Said!
Nanda mentioned that a team from Odisha will visit the states to inspect the tigers, with the expectation that the program to enhance the genetic pool at Similipal will be underway by the end of September.
To boost the tiger population, five Royal Bengal tigers will be relocated from Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra to Debrigarh and Similipal in Odisha. The National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) has already approved this plan.
Susanta Nanda, PCCF Wildlife, mentioned that a team from Odisha will visit these states to inspect the tigers, with the program to enhance Similipal's genetic pool expected to begin by the end of September.
