Coimbatore:
Villagers at Urulikkal estate in Valparai in Coimbatore district are in a state of panic as a tiger is on the prowl.
The tiger attacked cows and killed a two-year-old calf on Thursday night, officials said.
Villagers said they made a loud noise and chased the animal away.
Some villagers noticed the tiger moving around the estate early on Friday, following which some forest department and veterinary department officials have rushed to the spot, either to trap or catch it by firing tranquiliser darts, sources said.
Some three months ago, a boy was mauled to death by a leopard in the area.
