Tiger with GPS technology killed

A Tiger, on which wildlife officials had put an equipment to locate it any time, has been killed in Bardiya National Park.

National Park officials confirmed the death of the tiger, named Namobuddha, almost one month after it went missing.

Issuing a press statement Tuesday, Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation said, some hair of the tiger and the equipment was found in burnt condition near the place where the tiger was located last.

Officials have suspected the tiger was killed by poisoning it in a well planned manner.

Namobuddha was the only tiger installed with Geo-Position System (GPS) technology.

Police have arrested three persons in suspicion of involvement in poaching the tiger
