NAGPUR: A full-grown male tiger attacked a woman after entering the Nakadongri range in Bhandara forest division of Maharashtra from Madhya Pradesh 's Katangi forest area two days ago.Before crossing the state border, the big cat had reportedly entered into a wedding reception in MP. Around 5am on Wednesday, it attacked Shantabai Zingru Karkade of Sundartola village who had gone to answer nature's call. She has been admitted at a government hospital in Tumsar.Bhandara forest officials and wildlife NGOs monitoring the big cat say the tiger stays close to human settlements and is attracted to light.Balaghat (MP) chief conservator of forests (CCF) Dhirendra Bhargava admits it is a "bold" tiger that even walks through village roads. He added that a team had been monitoring the tiger since this monsoon but said the tiger's past could not be traced. "It is possible that it has been pushed out of its territory by a younger tiger," he said.The tiger not being afraid of humans was evident when it sneaked into a marriage reception in Masulkhapa village in MP and caused panic. "The reception was on when the tiger entered the pandal. Villagers shouted and ran helter-skelter before finally driving away the tiger towards the forest," said a volunteer of Bhandara's Save Ecosystem And Tiger.Bhandara deputy conservator of forests Vivek Hoshing said a seven-member committee has been constituted under him to monitor the tiger. He said three separate teams are monitoring the tiger. "The behaviour of the tiger seems unusual," said Hoshing.
