Tiger Attacks Death Toll Climbs to Four in Nepal
The victim, who was collecting mushrooms in a forest, was fatally attacked by the predator. His body was later discovered by nearby residents, according to Bijay Raj Pandit, the district police information officer.
"It is unclear whether a single tiger or multiple tigers caused the deaths," Pandit told media. "We're trying to locate and capture the cannibal tiger."
Human-wildlife conflicts remain a pressing issue in Nepal, which is home to 355 tigers, according to the latest census conducted in 2022.
