full-grown tiger was trapped on Wednesday after being on the prowl in the neighbourhood of Lucknow for exactly 108 days. The tiger was believed to have strayed from the forest in and around Lakhimpur-Kheri district, about 200 km from Lucknow, in early January and had found his haven in a thick forest patch around the Union government run Central Institute of Sub-Tropical Horticulture in Rehmankhera, barely 20 km off the state capital. According to UP forest and wildlife conservator Mahendra Singh, who was specially detailed to lead the operation, “The wild cat was first sighted in the forests of Hardoi on January 1 and barely four days later, it was spotted in the sprawling 250-acre forest patch in Rehmankhera, where we succeeded in capturing the animal today.” The tiger, however, casue no injury to any human being. The captured Tiger is carried to the Dudhwa national park, where it would be set free on Thursday.
