Mandla (Madhya Pradesh): A tiger was found dead in Kanha Tiger Reserve (KTR) in Madhya Pradesh's Mandla district, a forest official said on Friday.
The carcass of a big cat, aged around three years old, was found by a patrolling team of foresters on Thursday, KTR's field director S K Singh said.
Prima facie evidence suggests that the tiger was killed in a territorial fight with another feline around 10 days ago, he said.
A tigress was similarly found dead in KTR by beat guards on February 8.
