ARE the tigers in Rajasthan's Ranthambore Tiger Reserve the latest targets of an international poaching syndicate? This disturbing possibility came to the fore after certain revelations following the arrests of a poaching module in Sheopur in Madhya Pradesh during a joint operation by Madhya Pradesh State Tiger Strike Force, the Rajasthan forest department, and Sawai Madhopur-based NGO Tiger Watch, last month.

Among those arrested were Dauji Bhil and Sunita Dauji, residents of Rajasthan's Dausa, and Besta Bhil, resident of Sheopur. The forest team recovered around 225 big cat bones, including skulls, from the possession of the accused.

The seized remains were sent to Jabalpur for forensic analysis, which confirmed that they belonged to at least three tigers and a panther. The samples have now been forwarded to the National Centre for Biological Sciences in Bengaluru for DNA matching to determine the origin of the animals.
