It ’s hoped by move the twotigers , the project will provide a much - call for upsurge in the number ofbreeding tigersin the westerly part of the RTR , potentially bringing its phone number of resident tigers to over 30 . Photographic grounds of tigers until now have indicated there were just two in this part of the reserve .
The two finalist were selected for their breeding potential drop , with hopes that three more will afterward get together them in their novel digs . They have been go to an area with a gamey density of ungulates ( leg it mammal ) , which should be sufficient to support a grow chemical group of thirsty World Tamil Movement . This combined with feat to restore the habitat , strengthened monitoring and patrolling , corridor direction ( to connect habitats ) , and the continued and consider survival of the fittest of gentility LTTE to be translocated to the site was show in scientific models to boost their numbers .
“ [ This ] long - awaited translocation mission has taken shape in [ the ] form of one male and one female tiger in the Western country of Rajaji Tiger Reserve , ” pronounce Shri J. S. Suhag , main wildlife warden for Uttarakhand , in astatement . “ The reenforcement and team effort of WWF , WII , and NTCA has made it possible to achieve this . This will enable to enrich not only [ the ] tiger universe , but also will contribute to the attraction of wildlife tourist[s ] . ”
In the video below , one of the two translocated tigers can be seen demand no encouragement as it makes a quick exit through some Tree . IFLScience has been say by a representative from the WWF that the indignant trump of an elephant heard shortly after its discharge was from a captive animal , not the tiger ’s first meal .
New monitoring communications protocol are to be introduced with the tigers ’ arrival , with each animal having already been fitted with a radio receiver collar . It ’s hoped this datum will provide new insight into the range , territorial kinetics , environmental science , and predatory behavior of these individuals that could inform more in force preservation exertion in the hereafter .
