The animal was taken under control from Manahari rural municipality-6. It is believed that the wild cat killed two males on Friday and Sunday.

Presently, there are four tigers in Kasara and two in Sauraha. Prior to this, the park sent three tigers to Parsa, Banke and Bardiya National Parks due to space constraints.
