The 2-year-old tigress, T7-S2, was captured Monday evening in the Kolara core range of Tadoba and examined for her health status. Veterinary checks confirmed that she was fit for transfer, a release from the forest department Tuesday said.

“Tigress T7-S2 is a young dispersing female from the Kolara core range. She is healthy, strong and behaviourally suited for translocation,” Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve's field director Dr Prabhunath Shukla said.
