Though a tiger was killed on Saturday, fear persists among plantation workers in The Nilgiris. Many estates in the district registered a low attendance on Monday. A plantation worker was mauled to death by a carnivore on March 11 (Friday). Going by pug marks and camera trap images, it was established that the carnivore was a tiger and also that it had sustained injuries on its legs and stomach. After a week long effect to capture the animal, the operation ended with the killing of the tiger.
