About 39 tigers and cubs have died within the state from January 2019 to November 2024. In Ranthambore alone, 27 tigers have been killed throughout this era. Many tigers have died resulting from poisoning, looking, gunpowder, noose and just lately mass killing of tiger T 86, pure loss of life and territorial battle. Ranthambore is unfold over an space of 1700 sq. kilometers and tourism is organized in 10 zones. All these incidents, together with T-86, may have been prevented if thermal cameras had been working. In truth, by way of thermal cameras, all of the actions together with the exercise of tigers and different wildlife, their physique construction, looking, human interference, unlawful mining, logging and grazing are monitored. The knowledge obtained from monitoring the cameras helps the forest division in higher planning and implementation. Ironically, tigers saved dying within the state’s Tiger Reserve, the Forest Department saved writing letters to DoIT repeatedly requesting them to repair the system, however DoIT wouldn’t pay any consideration. The system price Rs 50 crore has been damaged for a very long time however nobody bothered to repair it. Regarding Wildlife Surveillance and Anti-Poaching System, the federal government ought to now depart the dependence on DoIT and get the work carried out by a non-public and skilled firm in order that the wildlife will be benefited.
