After 25 'Missing' Tigers Report In Rajasthan, 10 Spotted On Camera Traps

Amid a controversy over a report claiming 25 tigers in Rajasthan's Ranthambore National Park have gone "missing", officials on Thursday said 10 of those big cats have already been traced.

The official's reaction came after Rajasthan's Chief Wildlife Warden Pavan Kumar Upadhyay on Monday said 25 of the 75 tigers in the wildlife reserve, which is located about 130 km from the state capital Jaipur, had gone missing over the last year.

This was reportedly the first time such a high number of tigers has been officially reported missing in a year. Earlier, 13 tigers were reported missing from Ranthambore between 2019 and 2022.
